DISCLAIMER: The absence of events from a particular faction does not indicate that a slanted perspective exists in Activists Guide. It means that we are not notified of the event. There is no selection of events. If we were notified of an event by an organization that appears in Activists’ Guide Directory of Organizations the entry will appear in the AG Calendar.
Activists’ Guide Directory of Organizations is reviewed at six-month intervals to ensure its accuracy.

Sierra Club Young Leaders Council
|
|
The application for our 2024 class of the Young Leaders Council is now live! The Young Leaders Council (YLC) equips young people (ages 18-25) with the skills and experiences needed to advocate for environmental issues they care about most. In addition to being taught by Sierra Club staff and partnering organizations, the council can expect to gain experience in planning and implementing events like lobby days, policy and issue webinars, and days of action.
|
|
Our current YLC members are working on issues ranging from food insecurity to advocating for protections against toxic gas leaks. We are excited to have the opportunity to support these efforts and the endeavors of our future YLC members.
|
The application is live and can be accessed at vasierra.club/ylcapp. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis through November 10th. More information can be found at our website at https://www.sierraclub.org/virginia/young-leaders-council.

Entries may be made to the AG’s calendar by any organization whose actions attempt to create a more just, equitable, non-violent world.
The stance taken by a particular organization/government is not considered. We are not a megaphone for one side or the other.
