Advocacy Training

Through a unique partnership, World Vision collaborates with churches, schools, and community organizations for this 20-week, in-depth local youth leadership and civic engagement training series.

The curriculum focuses on skills that will last a lifetime, including:

Developing personal, organizational, and community leadership

Engaging in advocacy

Growing capacity to develop policy, make law, and engage the federal government through advocacy.

World Vision’s youth development staff and other mentors creatively engage the talent, passion, energy, and unique gifts that young people bring to our world. Participants learn to identify issues that are important to them and their peers, and develop a presentation to share their concerns with congressional leaders.
