Welcome to the 1-Hour Advocate Series
The 1-Hour Advocate is a self-guided educational program that breaks down key concepts in growth mindset, intellectual humility, and leadership into a series of learning modules that are easy to digest and comprehend.
The Teen Think Tank Project, a teen-run research institute, created these on-demand learning modules for teens and families interested in learning more about social justice and how to become an agent of change.
Each learning module is punctuated by insights provided by real-life advocates who have joined our community to help teens and their families embrace their desire to develop a voice in the world that they will inherit.
Teen Think Tank Project
The Teen Think Tank Project is a research institute whose mission is to help high-potential teens activate their passion for social change and develop a voice in the world they will inherit.
We work with exceptional students to develop the communication, leadership, and decision-making skills necessary to identify issues within their community and develop the intellectual humility and growth mindset required to create solutions to those problems.
We have worked with approximately 100 students, along with educational institutions, community organizations, and families, to help high-potential teens become change agents.
Alums of our program have worked with 60 thought leaders, conducted over 5000 hours of research, and written 100K words outlining public policy frameworks to solve real social justice issues.
You are one click away from joining our community of teen change agents!
