The event features “hands-on training designed to help you build confidence, sharpen your voice, and step into leadership. ” The workshop is nonpartisan and is expected to help students learn how to run for office and increase engagement in local politics. 

It is facilitated by Susannah Wellford, the CEO of Running Start. Additionally, there will be a focus on community leadership and student government, with members of local government expected to be in attendance. The workshop, especially with the reception, serves as a learning and networking opportunity.
