Friend,

Even during these uncertain times, Americans United is working hard to build a pipeline of leadership to sustain our movement into the future.

That’s why today, we are launching AU’s first-ever Youth Organizing Fellowship!

With the separation of religion and government under constant attack, it’s more important than ever that we defend this constitutional principle together. This leadership development program will train and support a group of 10 youth leaders (ages 18-25) from across the country who are advocating for separation of religion and government in their communities.

Please click here to read more about this exciting program and learn how anyone aged 18-25 can apply today to become an AU Youth Organizing Fellow.

• Plan events and campaigns to mobilize young people in their communities on church-state separation issues.
• Develop tools and resources that meet young people where they are.
• Help advance local, state, and federal policies to protect religious freedom for all.

The Fellowship kicks off with a convening in Washington, D.C., in September 2020 and continues over the course of a year. The deadline to apply is May 24, 2020.

We are so excited to recruit our first group of fellows If you know any young people with an interest in defending the separation of church and state, please forward them this email or direct them to au.org/youthfellows.

Programs like this are only possible because of the generosity of supporters like you, friend. Thank you for helping us build our movement’s next generation of leaders.

Sincerely,

Alicia Johnson
National Organizer and Student Network Manager
