Both this semester and last semester the students of Hoover ASB have had the opportunity to learn about the power of their student voice through a series workshops; AMPLIFYing. The four pillars of AMPLIFYing, Identity, Leadership, Change Agency and finally Legacy, lead students through the various steps of finding what is important to them and their communities and how to advocate for change. Students also learn about the need for an adaptive leadership style to work through our complex community systems as well as leading with a restorative lens. By the end of the workshops, students have identified a cause, developed a message and carried out an advocacy campaign as well as planned for future action. The Youth Advocacy Department is looking forward to the impact that these lessons will have on the student population and community.
