U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown is pleased to announce that applications are now being accepted for Propel Ohio 2016.
Propel Ohio is a leadership program that promotes civic engagement and inspires undergraduate students to grow into civic leaders in Ohio. Last year, over 250 Ohio students and administrators from 60 colleges and universities attended the inaugural Propel Ohio.
Propel Ohio 2016 will be held on Friday, Oct. 14, at the University of Dayton. It will actively engage college students on issues that affect childhood poverty, including health and hunger, education, and housing security. Brown, guest speakers, and workshop facilitators will discuss how college students can tackle these challenges in their Ohio communities. At the end of the day, there will be a Resource Fair where students will connect with organizations that are addressing childhood poverty all across Ohio.
Each of Ohio’s two-year and four-year public and private colleges and universities is currently invited to appoint up to three undergraduate students and one administrator to attend the program. The deadline for students to apply on Senator Brown’s website is Friday, Sept. 16. Applications will be shared by Brown’s office with students’ school, and placement decisions will be made by Sept. 30.
