We are now taking applications for our 2022 Catalyst Leadership Program!
For this year’s program, we are changing up the format: we are selecting applicants to join us on a trip to the Netroots Nation Leadership Conference in Pittsburgh, PA, from August 18 – 20 (participants will need to be available August 17 – 21). Rights & Democracy Institute will support with tickets, travel and lodging for this life-changing experience.
Since 2006, Netroots Nation has hosted the largest annual conference for progressives, and it is PACKED with leadership development training from a wide range of experienced trainers.
There are limited spaces available, and this opportunity is open only to Vermont womyn and people who identify as womyn, including youth 16-18 and youth enrolled in community college. We are looking for an intersection of womyn from all walks of life who are interested in becoming leaders in their communities, including BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ and people with disabilities. Applications are due June 6th.
