Our Power: A March for Our Lives Summit
REGISTRATION FOR THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED.
ARCHIVED CONTENT, JULY 14, 2019

about the event

The OurPower Summit will be a dynamic, unifying summit for March For Our Lives movement leaders from around the country. Hundreds of student leaders from chapters across the U.S. will come ready to sharpen their knowledge of organizing and issue advocacy to create an action plan to grow, organize, and mobilize their communities around the issue of gun violence. Youth leaders will walk away from the summit energized, united, and ready to do whatever it takes to change our country’s laws and minds -- and ultimately, save lives.

Participants will spend three days in training seminars and interactive workshops sharpening their advocacy skills and building out an action plan. Participants can expect workshops on a wide variety of topics such as event organizing, diversity and inclusion, dealing with internet trolls, building effective coalitions, and more!

There is no registration fee for OurPower! Attendees receive 3 days of training, lodging, meals, workshop supplies, and swag! However, we regret that we are unable to cover transportation costs, so attendees will be responsible for their own travel to/from the Summit. Limited scholarships for travel funds are available upon request. To apply for a scholarship, please click HERE! (Please apply for a scholarship if you would like to be compensated for gas!)

OurPower will take place on July 29-31 at the Houston Airport Marriott in Houston, TX. The hotel and venue are attached to the George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH), so please make travel arrangements to fly in and out of IAH. Austin students are highly recommended to carpool and drive to Houston.  Check in for OurPower will begin at 12pm on Monday, July 29 and the program will end at 1:00pm on Wednesday, July 31. Full schedule and workshop descriptions to follow! 

NOTE: All attendees will be required to sign a consent form upon or before arrival to the OurPower Summit.
