Bring 'I Am Change' Civic Leadership Program To Your Community
September 29, 2011
With the unfortunate rise of Islamophobia, and current events, issues and concerns needing the Muslim American community to raise its voice, do you wish you knew how to effectively talk to public officials, media and your community leaders? Are you sick of hearing government officials, media pundits, and elected leaders talk about Muslims ... but never bother talking to Muslims?
Domestic and foreign policy issues you care deeply about are not going to go away soon. If you care about them enough are you ready to act? Are you ready to act to bring about change?
The Muslim Public Affairs Council’s “I Am Change” Civic Leadership Program can help empower your community to stand up and advocate for the issues we all care about, and strengthen your ability to do it effectively.
SEE: “I Am Change” Introduction Video
Since the program’s launch last year, MPAC has traveled across the country from Maryland to Georgia to Ohio to Kansas to Massachusetts to California bringing this civic engagement program to Muslim American communities.
"I Am Change" is about active citizenship. It's about each of us embracing our rights as Muslim Americans to work with decision makers in our local communities, in our state legislatures and in Congress to shape better policies.
Give us three hours and we'll give you:
- Knowledge on how to promote civic engagement from an Islamic perspective
- A deeper understanding of how local, state and federal government works and your role in advocating at each level
- Practical skills in how to talk about the issues you care about with public officials and the media
- Energizing examples of Muslim Americans who are successfully working for change every single day, and making a difference
“I Am Change” lets MPAC staff work with you and your community to enhance our collective civic and political participation as a Muslim American community.
Call 323-258-MPAC (6722) or email iamchange@mpac.org to schedule a high energy, engaging and interactive workshop in your community.
