Testimonials

Participating in the Grassroots Leadership Academy training has been transformative for me. The storytelling and narrative trainings, in particular, were instrumental in my journey to becoming a great political candidate. This training has equipped me with the skills and confidence needed to achieve my goals, ultimately leading to my current role serving on the State Board of Education in Oklahoma. The support and resources provided have been invaluable, and I am deeply grateful for this empowering experience.

GLA provided an exceptional learning opportunity in educating our students, faculty, and staff in fundamental and meaningful advocacy engagement in our communities. Their hard work, dedication, outstanding experience, and versed knowledge they imparted allowed participants to gain greater insight into tangible ways to engage in speaking up for issues for which they are passionate and made the approach to advocacy exciting.

GLA is all about equipping you with the right tools and skills that enable you to achieve your ends. As a small business owner and concerned citizen, I have gained useful knowledge at GLA that have helped me build my personal brand while also making me a better advocate for Liberty. GLA has made its graduates realize our real power as individuals and as a community.

Grassroots Leadership Academy gave me the skills and tools necessary to run for state office in Utah.  “The Power of Storytelling,” “Narratives and Framing,” and “Powermapping” helped me as a candidate.  GLA helped me familiarize myself with the legislative process and empowered me to become a State Senator.

As an activist, my top issue has been education freedom.  After attending a GLA legislative training in Helena, I was able to work with a coalition partner, Community Choice Charter Schools for Montana, to organize parents and students to pass our charter school and open enrollment bills…both of which were successfully signed by the governor.

As a proud graduate of GLA, I have gained valuable skills from the program. I believe that real change begins with us, the community. Over the years, I have empowered and motivated community members to achieve their full potential, and I believe that GLA is leading the way in education for change. What’s even more impressive, is that they are just getting started.
