The Tobacco Endgame Center for Organizing and Engagement Introduces: The Campaign Organizing and Leadership Institutes

The Tobacco Endgame Center for Organizing and Engagement is pleased to announce a new opportunity for California Tobacco Control Program-funded project staff to engage in a unique campaign organizing and leadership development training. The Campaign Organizing and Leadership Institutes (The Institutes) will bring together up to 50 individuals who will be selected based upon an application process, described below.

There will be two Institutes, February 16-18 and May 25-27, and are open to all CTCP-funded projects. Participation is limited to 50 people per Institute.

The Institutes are designed to create a unique learning and interactive experience. The course work will inspire you to refine your organizing and leadership skills, both as an individual leader and an influencer of others – coalition members, colleagues, partners, and supporters. You will be motivated to actively share your training experience and become empowered to teach, coach and lead others in the creation and execution of winning tobacco control and endgame policy campaigns. The Institutes will include four key training modules in Health Equity, Leadership, Community Organizing and Engagement, and Strategic Communications.

To apply for the February 16-18 Institute, complete an application and submit a letter of reference by January 29 at 11:59 PM. Applicants will be notified by February 5th via email whether they have been accepted. Please check the event page for application instructions.
