Soulforce Q Camp

This summer, Soulforce Q Camp will unite young adults - LGBTQ and allies alike - who are interested or engaged in creative grassroots organizing.

• Soulforce Q Camp is an all expenses paid ten day gathering that empowers young leaders to build peer networks, cultivate progressive alliances and connect bold local activism to larger movements.

• Soulforce Q Camp will focus on skills that sustain grassroots work: anti-oppression training, nonviolence, Scriptural analysis (for faith-based social justice work), media relations, fundraising, effective campaign design and implementation.

• Soulforce Q Camp will take place July 10-19 in Texas (location TBD). Travel, accommodations, meals, and educational resources will be covered and provided by Soulforce Q.

• As part of the program, Camp participants are expected to lead an event or campaign in their local community this fall. Soulforce Q will offer stipends and staff support to make this possible.
