Act for Change Anti-racism Program

The next Act for Change cohort will take place on Tuesday evenings, beginning February 27th through April 16th. If you'd like to participate, please submit an application here.

Act for Change brings together teens from across Ulster County to engage in anti-racist dialogue and work across identity groups. Teens will have the opportunity to attend/give a workshop and we plan a culminating event at the Ulster County government offices. All other meetings are virtual. 

Act for Change was co-developed by teens, Cooperative Extension staff, and Cornell faculty and undergraduate students. 

Youth development professionals, are you interested in FACILITATING a teen anti-racism group? Check out our Facilitator's Guide.
