SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., April 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Transformative Justice Coalition (TJC) will host its 2024 Spring GenZ/Young Millennial Training in Scottsdale, AZ. The training is part of TJC's ongoing efforts to provide 18 ? 35-year-old leaders with the tools to enhance their leadership skills. This training will also improve their critical thinking skills through a voting rights immersion series. The substantive panels feature the nation's top voting rights advocates, civic engagement organizations, racial justice advocates, scholars, leaders, and community activists.
This intense GenZ/YM training program includes more than twelve workshops, a South Phoenix community activation, and networking opportunities. All panel discussions are conducted with subject matter experts in the historic and current fight for voter justice. Subject matters presented include communications, community and campus organizing, voter registration, voter education, voter mobilization, restoration of voting rights, and voter protection strategies. The ultimate goal is to train GenZ and Young Millennials to be voting rights champions, trained by seasoned professionals and experts and equipped to go back to their communities and carry on the work. All TJC Fellows expenses are paid to ensure minorities have access and exposure to this type of opportunity. This year's class represents 28 HBCU's and 7 PWI's.
