Our Programs
Our programs draw on different models to help build community among our members and provide the necessary support for them to deepen their impact as civic leaders.
We gather young people online and in-person to spark dialogue, forge meaningful connections and help them explore their civic agency in a safe and trusted space.
We bring together members to learn from one another as a method for self-guided development as they work to build their own impact initiatives.
We support a select number of rising leaders with grants and ongoing mentorship to help them expand their impact and reach as changemakers.
FEATURED PROGRAMS
Our year-long virtual mental health camp is a safe place for young people to expand their self-care routines, build skills to support the wellbeing of their peers and develop their own mental health initiatives.
We are equipping a diverse group of 19 young people across 13 states to launch their own mental health initiatives through a year-long fellowship that provides stipends, mentorship, and the opportunity to learn from their peers in a community of practice.
By completing evidence-based trainings from The Wellness Education Lab, our members are getting certified with skills to be more emotionally resilient and better support those facing mental health challenges in their lives.
We are hosting events in New York, Wisconsin and Texas to support young people in using their civic voice to share what they want to see change and equipping them with the tools to do something to create a more just, equitable future in their community.
Each year we support a new cohort of emerging civic leaders with grants and mentorship to help them scale an existing impact initiative they have successfully created in their community.
In partnership with The Leading Change Network, we are training members in becoming more effective movement builders through Public Narrative workshops where they learn principles from legendary organizer Marshall Ganz. Participants learn to shape their personal narratives to inspire and mobilize others to action.
DoSomething members discover the challenges our communities face and engage in diverse service actions to collectively build healthier, more sustainable communities. Members have completed over 94,000 hours of service since the launch of Strength Through Service.
In the United States, millions of people lack access to safe, clean drinking water. DoSomething is joining forces with the Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement (CIRCLE) and young people across the country to research how to tackle environmental issues head-on, starting with water quality.
