'I Am Change' is a unique program to empower American Muslims around the country to stand up and advocate for the issues you care about, and strengthen your ability to do it effectively. It's about active citizenship. It's about each of us embracing our rights as American Muslims to work with decision makers in our local communities, state legislatures, and Congress to shape better policies.

The workshop will give students:
—Inspiring knowledge on how to promote civic engagement from an Islamic perspective with members of your community
—A deeper understanding of how local, state and federal government works and your role in advocating at each level
—Practical skills in how to talk about the issues you care about with public officials and the media
—Energizing examples of Muslim Americans who are successfully working for change every single day, and making a difference External Event Url
