Introduction
The Spark Change Project is a groundbreaking initiative designed to empower Black and Brown girls as leaders in advocacy. By equipping them with the skills to develop policy agendas and testify before local policymakers, SCP is preparing the next generation of female activists of color to drive meaningful social change.
Leadership Development
At SCP’s core is leadership training. Participants gain hands-on experience in advocacy, learning how to craft policy recommendations and mobilize their communities. This initiative fosters confidence, ensuring these young women are prepared to take on leadership roles in the future.
Community Engagement
SCP is more than individual growth—it’s about collective action. Participants organize events, workshops, and discussions that inspire their peers to engage in social justice efforts, creating a ripple effect of empowerment and awareness.
Policy Advocacy
The program culminates in a Spark Change Day of Advocacy, where participants present their policy agendas. In 2025, SCP girls will testify at the Texas legislative session, using their voices to influence real policy decisions.
Wrap-Up
The Spark Change Project is shaping the future of advocacy by equipping young women with the skills, confidence, and platforms needed to enact lasting change.
