Student-Led Climate Policy with Ten Strands’ California Youth Climate Policy Leadership Program
What does it look like when a high school student doesn’t just learn about climate change — but actually changes school policy because of it? Ten Strands’ California Youth Climate Policy (CYCP) Leadership Program has been answering that question since its pilot cohort, equipping ninth- through twelfth-grade students across California with the knowledge, skills, and mentorship to lead real advocacy campaigns that pass climate policies in their own schools and districts.
Join us to hear directly from Ten Strands — a California State PTA allied agency — about how CYCP works and what it’s produced: student leaders who understand systems thinking, environmental justice, and how to move an idea through the policy process. This session is especially timely as CA PTA co-sponsors SB 1048, legislation to strengthen climate literacy in California schools. Whether you’re a student curious about getting involved, a PTA leader looking for ways to connect your community to climate action, or an educator wondering how to bring this kind of program to your school, this webinar is for you.
