Dozens of Youth Leadership Training Opportunities
The folks at the Bus Project have put together an incredible working document of progressive and non-partisan training programs. You can find the full document here (and the folks at the Bus are encouraging people to edit the document to add in new opportunities or more information about those already listed. It's a great, great resource already listing almost 40 different training programs ranging from the hyper-partisan and political to more non-partisan, social justice and civic oriented opportunities.
As usual, nothing but excellence from the folks at The Bus.
