Start a Chapter

You can create an NGP chapter at your school or in your community with weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly meetings. Meetings each highlight an important issue in our society: one meeting could focus on gun safety while the next could bring the intersection of technology and politics to the forefront. The chapter meetings can include guest speakers or simply be a space for cross-partisan deliberation in your school community (which so many schools lack). They can be 45-90 mtgs, meeting like a typical school club. While this may seem daunting, we have compiled myriad resources to start you off. We have an introductory email to your school, a google form for sign-ups, and a framework for myriad meetings such as gun control immigration, abortion, American foreign intervention, technology, and first amendment rights in schools through our Six Week Starter Kit for Civil Discourse. 

Apply: Fill out this application to let us know a bit about you and your interests.

Commitment: Two hours per week (could be less if you prefer a biweekly or monthly format– we recommend at least every two weeks to keep momentum going)
