The INSTITUTE 2012 is a 3-day national training for young organizers, young member leaders, and youth organizers from across the country.

Participants will come together to build their skills, exchange lessons learned, and strategize to fight to win justice for our communities. We'll develop a solid and systematic orientation to the fundamentals of organizing, including base-building, campaign strategy, and leadership development. Rooted in current youth struggles, the INSTITUTE will provide a unique space for emerging leaders to engage with the challenges and opportunities of the current moment, to advance our organizations and to build a stronger movement.

Training fees range from $200 to $690, and are determined on a sliding scale based on organizational budget. The training fee covers meals and lodging for the duration of the training, as well as SOUL's Youth Organizing Skills Curriculum Manual.

Space for the Institute is limited, so please do apply early! In order to consider your application complete, please submit the organizational application AND the individual application online by January 9th, 2012. Applicants from the same organization only need to submit 1 organizational application.
