CLAP Weekly is on a summer pause but anyone can visit clapsac.com to find resources for Sactown. There have been ongoing cuts to services and programs but for years CLAP has existed as low barrier, advocacy, and connection for those with the least support. Find out more below: https://www.canva.com/design/DAHT4JZCt-8/u9n4I830hz9g6LkcYOeZYw/watch?utm_content=DAHT4JZCt-8&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link2&utm_source=uniquelinks&utlId=h7a535fb84a

Living in these times is not the absence of struggle but the act of deciding that the struggle for our neighbor's stability is also our own.

For the highly sensitive, the loud and big hearted, the extroverts: "No more apologies for a bleeding heart when the opposite is no heart at all. Danger of losing our humanity must be met with more humanity,"- - Toni Morrison

For Indigenous Youth across California - share with your networks and learn more about C.O.R.E. and apply here: https://forms.gle/K82Ki1vJJpqJQFn8A. Applications close Monday, September 14, 2026.

👋🏾 Native youth! The application window is now open for the Coalition of Organizers Rooted in Empowerment program (C.O.R.E.) - a 10-month statewide cohort for Native youth ages 18–25 – who want to grow their leadership, build community, and turn what they care about into meaningful change.

Leadership doesn't start with having all the answers. It starts with being willing to learn, grow, and take action.

C.O.R.E. is a place to learn, ask questions, build relationships, and discover what you’re capable of alongside Native youth from across California. No organizing experience is required; just a willingness to show up, grow, and learn together. 🌱

If you’ve been waiting for someone to tell you that you’re ready enough to start, consider this your invitation. 💌

💡Learn more about C.O.R.E. and apply here: https://forms.gle/K82Ki1vJJpqJQFn8A. Applications close Monday, September 14, 2026.
