Hey there John,

Are you angry about billionaires and politicians wrecking the planet and stealing our future? You’re not alone. This summer, we’re turning that anger into power. Sunrise is hitting the road, bringing Regional Trainings to the West Coast, East Coast, and South, and we want you in the room.

Before I found Sunrise, I was overwhelmed by the scale of the climate crisis and unsure how to actually make a difference. Then I walked into a Sunrise training, full of young people like me, fired up and ready to fight. I left with a plan, real skills, and a community that’s had my back ever since. That’s the power of showing up.

These aren’t just workshops. They’re a chance to gather with hundreds of other young people across your region who refuse to sit by while our communities are flooded, burned, and sold off to the highest bidder. Together, we will:

Launch our End the Oligarchy, Save Our Futures plan — the bold vision guiding Sunrise this year.
Train 500 young people across race & class to organize and take bold, strategic action.
Build the skills, relationships, and strategy we need to win a Green New Deal and take back our future.

What to expect

Inspiring trainings on our plan, organizing skills, and action strategy.
Hands-on practice — because the best way to learn is by doing.
Community & connection with youth organizers from your region.
Meals + hangouts to build trust, deepen relationships, and make lifelong movement friends.

See you in the streets and in the training room,
