Today there are more young organizers than ever, running savvy campaigns and changing policies at the local, state, and national level. At the SSC, we’ve tried to transform more than 110 years of Sierra Club experience into useful resources that can make your campaigns and groups even better. From our Campus Climate Challenge toolkits to our organizing skill trainings, you’re sure to find helpful resources!
The Support and Outreach Subcommittee has launched a program that pairs up SSCers of all different levels of involvement to learn from each other and become better organizers. The program is designed to strengthen the SSC community, build personal relationships, develop leaders, and help us rock our campaigns! After all, we are our own best resource--let's use it!
