The ACLU of Idaho is taking its biggest community training event on the road! This installation of our Activist Academy will be take place in three key areas around the state, but the focus will still be on providing participants with information and tips on various strategies for community organizing and activism activism tactics.
In breaking with how we've typically done the Activist Academy, we hope to better reach folks in smaller communities around Idaho who don't often have opportunities to attend community trainings such as this, or who have not yet had a chance connect with the ACLU of Idaho. It is always our goal to continue to promote diversity amongst the groups of emerging and established community organizers around Idaho and the Activist Academy is an integral part of those efforts.
