Join the Planning Team:
The Practical Activism Conference Planning Team is composed of students affiliated with College Nine, College Ten, and Oakes College of the University of California Santa Cruz. Being a part of the Practical Activism Team is a unique rewarding experience where participants have the opportunity to learn organizing activism skills, learn and build upon their professional development skills, and be a part of creative team-building, while making friends and lasting memories along the way. The 15th Annual planning team is set! Keep a lookout for opportunities to volunteer or email the Coco!
