Circle Pines Center is creating the CPC Organizing Institute because we recognize the need to network with organizations providing organizing skills to disinvested and marginalized populations as well as young adults. We have an extensive facility and campground on 275 acres 35 minutes from Kalamazoo, MI that is making an effort to network with young adult activists in the region. 

We aspire to create tangible programming to build trust with systemically and institutionally marginalized communities in Southwest Michigan and the wider midwest region. There are a number of program opportunities for young adults and youth in social justice organizing skills but none that focus on training organizers to be trainers themselves. 

Our CPC Organizing institute will run on a pilot basis for two weekends in November of 2025 providing training and networking opportunities for regional activists. We have sourced professional trainers to create and assist with this pilot program and will provide cutting edge training for all participants.
