Ready and Real: ELCA Young Leaders in Advocacy

ELCA Advocacy is very excited to offer “Ready and Real: ELCA Young Leaders in Advocacy” – a pre-event to plus participation in 2020 Ecumenical Advocacy Days.

Turn-around time is quick. We need applications by January 15, 2020 for the April 2020 event which is a great opportunity for skill building, experience and networking.  

Young adults with passion and commitment for advocacy are invited to apply by Jan. 15 for an energizing advocacy leadership training hosted April 23-24 by ELCA Advocacy, immediately followed by participation in the Ecumenical Advocacy Days (EAD) gathering and lobby day on Capitol Hill April 24-27. Expenses excluding travel to/from D.C. are covered by scholarship for a small group of young adults ages 18 to 30 to facilitate growth in faith advocacy leadership.

Apply from https://forms.gle/BLEaVnkcdncxmSRS6. Participants are asked to commit to a one-year follow-through in a self-selected advocacy project based in ELCA institutions and networks. EAD 2020 will explore the intersection of climate change and economic injustice. In skill building and opportunity, advocacy will be galvanized to speak out for justice. The ELCA is an EAD sponsor.
