This new program provides leadership training and support for a select group of young leaders of color in Minnesota. Fellows participate in an intensive one-month training and then put their new skills to work in local community-based organizations. We also provide ongoing mentoring and peer support throughout the program.
Wellstone Action's signature weekend training program provides hands-on, practical training in grassroots politics for citizen activists, campaign workers, and people interested in running for office.
Campus Camp Wellstone trains students nationwide on how to run energized, community building, winning campaigns. We focus on campus and community organizing and young voter engagement.
Wellstone Action's Sheila Wellstone Institute is pleased to announce two workshops that we'll be offering this summer! They are designed to help nonprofit leaders engage in "nonprofit-approved" nonpartisan voter engagement work in 2012 and build
advocacy plans for 2012-2013 and beyond.
