About
FORWARD WYOMING GRASSROOTS INSTITUTE: THIS IS THE PRIMARY ACTIVITY OF FORWARD WYOMING. THE INSTITUTE IS A FREE, 10-WEEK, COMMUNITY ORGANIZING PROGRAM THAT AIMS TO PROMOTE CIVIC ENGAGEMENT AND LEADERSHIP AMONGST THE YOUNG PEOPLE AND VARIOUS COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO APPLY. THE GRASSROOTS INSTITUTE IS THE ONLY ONE IN WYOMING OF ITS KIND. THE PROGRAM MIXES CLASSROOM LECTURE AND DISCUSSION WITH REAL-WORLD SKILLS NEEDED BY ORGANIZERS, SUCH AS DIRECT VOTER CONTACT EXPERIENCE, VOLUNTEER MANAGEMENT SKILLS, NON-PROFIT ADVOCACY AND ENGAGEMENT, AND A DEEP KNOWLEDGE OF LOCAL ISSUES. FORWARD WYOMING CONTINUED TO CONDUCT THE GRASSROOTS INSTITUTE IN 2017. INSTITUTE STUDENTS, UPON GRADUATION, WERE ALSO ABLE TO APPLY THEIR NEWLY LEARNED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE TO PARTICIPATE IN FORWARD WYOMING'S OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES THAT DIRECTLY SERVED THE COMMUNITY. THE CURRICULUM FOR THE INSTITUTE CONTINUES TO EVOLVE FROM PREVIOUS ITERATIONS TO IMPROVE UPON WHAT WE ARE PROVIDING TO THE COMMUNITY, ESPECIALLY AS WE CONTINUE TO STRIVE TO BRING THE PROGRAM TO ADDITIONAL COMMUNITIES ACROSS WYOMING. FORWARD WYOMING STRIVES TO CONTINUOUSLY IMPROVE AND EXPAND AND DOES SO, IN PART, DUE TO OUR INCREASED COLLABORATION WITH LOCAL EXPERTS AND ORGANIZATIONS IN RESEARCHING NEW AND RELEVANT MATERIAL IN ORDER TO REFOCUS TRAININGS AND CURRICULUM TO REFLECT THE MOST CURRENT NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY.
