Answering the call

In community with other service-driven leaders, participants draw on their service experiences and core values to decide whether they want to run for office. Through guided reflection, Answering the Call helps leaders do the inner work before they decide to step into politics.

Do I want to engage in politics as my next mission?

"ATC was formative in my decision to transition from the private sector back into public service. It helped me clarify my purpose, understand how I could best put my skills, background, and passions to use, and gave me a community of diverse—but likeminded—compatriots to explore this pivotal decision with.”

"I appreciate how the program focused not on learning a formula to get elected, but on understanding what it would feel like for me, with all my strengths and weaknesses and values and priorities, to run for and then be in office.”

"My path to politics was never clear until I took this course. Now I undoubtedly know that I will be serving my community politically.”

It is an entry-level role ideal for early career individuals who are eager to get campaign experience.

Presenting the Public Narrative and Next Steps

"New Politics Academy is the only organization I’ve come across that focuses on preparing leaders to truly serve the public. While others in this space spend time and resources advancing partisan interests, NPA emphasis on the ‘why’ behind my mission has been invaluable for me as I’ve sought ways to continue serving my country through politics.”

"New Politics Academy provided a unique opportunity to dive deeply into my motivation behind running for office. The program inspired me to speak my truth on the campaign trail, and to better represent the needs of my peers and future constituents. It made me a better candidate - bar none.”
