Kayla, a fine EMU student and regular EMUTalk.org reader/contributor, sent me an email the other day about a conference she’s organizing. It seems like a quite worthy event to me, so here it is:
Do you have a VOICE? Do you want to use it?
The VOICE: Advocacy in Action Conference will talk about what it means to be a student advocate or activist here at EMU and beyond, how to become an advocate or activist, and more!
All workshops will be lead by YOUR peers, for YOU.
Founder of Students for a Democratic Society, Alan Haber, will be speaking!
Registration is from 3:15 – 4p, and is accompanied by a tabling event showcasing advocacy & activism organizations around EMU and the Ypsilanti community.
The Conference runs from 4p – 9p, and includes 3 workshops & dinner.
There will also be service & leadership opportunities after the conference. Ask how to to become more involved!
Cost? FREE!
