Courses and Events
Civic engagement is a key pillar in our advocacy. We believe in arming people with data and, facts about the issues impacting New York City children and equipping them with the tools to make a difference.
Community Leadership Course
The Community Leadership Course (CLC) is a 10-week course for adults offered every Fall. Participants spend one day a week immersed in different children’s issues and learn about effective child advocacy campaigns. Upon completion, participants often join CCC’s Advocacy Council for additional civic engagement opportunities.
