CommonAction is excited to announce the availability of the brand-new Washington Youth Voice Handbook. This 150+ page publication provides a clear map to the essentials of Youth Voice, including “What, Why, Where, When, and How” Youth Voice happens in diverse communities across Washington State. More than 50 programs, schools, and organizations are featured.

Using author Adam Fletcher’s experiences with SoundOut and The Freechild Project, this publication features 20+ Youth Voice workshop outlines that road-tested and carefully designed to increase the knowledge and ability of young people and adults. It also features a Youth Voice Assessment exploring multiple aspects of action; the Washington Youth Voice Directory including contact information for more than 50 groups statewide, and; a Youth Voice Resource Guide highlighting organizations, websites, and publications across the country and around the world.

The best news is that due to spectacular support from the Washington State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction Learn and Serve America program, CommonAction is able to offer this great new resource FREE online! You are invited to download the Handbook as a PDF, and to share this email with any of your contacts who you think should know about it.

PLEASE HELP US SPREAD THE WORD by forwarding this email, scheduling a workshop, or booking us to speak at your next gathering! Thank you for supporting Youth Voice!
