2020 Vision is soliciting applications for our Regional Director's Program.
This program is student led and participates in campus and national
activities. 2020 Vision Regional Directors are trained in Washington, DC,
and then help lead activities back in their own communities. It is a great
opportunity for any young, committed applicant.

So please forward this to young activists you know. Think about applying
yourself, if you're a college student.

Lead the Clean Energy Revolution as a Regional Director!


High Gas Prices, Conflict in the Middle East, Global Warming.


It's Time to Kick the Oil Habit!


Get a free trip to Washington-help lead a national advocacy group and bring
the energy security debate to your campus. 

2020 Vision is committed to engaging the public on how America's dependence
on oil is undermining our security, environment, and economy. Our advocacy,
media and web outreach campaigns bring these issues home to vast audiences
across the country and activate tens of thousands of people each month. 


An Opportunity of a lifetime.


2020 Vision launched an innovative new program to create a student-led
Regional Director's Council. 10-15 energetic participants from colleges and
universities across the US will be chosen as Volunteer Regional Directors to
come to Washington, D.C. in July of 2007 free of charge for an intensive
week of hands-on training in non-profit advocacy and field organizing.
During this one school-year term, participants will be our point of contact
for a non-partisan debate on energy security policy and related issues on
their campus. 


Leadership, not internship


Unlike most internships, this is real work experience with a minimal time
commitment. Instantly, you will become one of our top people in the field
bringing new interest into the organization on the issues you care about. We
understand that students like you are busy people and cannot always commit
to a full-time internship. This promises to be fun and exciting leadership
opportunity and you will learn skills that will benefit you in virtually
every career track. 

The PowerShift National Tour is just one campaign our current Regional
Directors ran themselves. 


Learn and use valuable skills


While in Washington, we will provide you with training from nationally
recognized professionals and our seasoned staff at 2020 Vision. You can
expect to walk away with skills in the following areas: 

*	Media relations
*	Community organizing
*	Organizational development
*	Issue advocacy

In addition, you will learn how to take the lead in producing a fully funded
event on global energy security on your college campus. We will provide you
with all of the necessary resources, several coalition partners,
round-the-clock support, and top-notch, nationally renowned speakers for the
events. Not only that, but you will be continuing to shape an exciting new
program at an innovative advocacy organization in Washington, D.C. 


Qualifications


*	A demonstrated commitment to global security, renewable energy, the
environment, social justice or other progressive causes or ideals
*	Strong people skills, a passion for quality leadership, and the
ability to multi-task
*	An ability to commit to a yearlong program that includes: promoting

Join us and help enact real change


Become a Regional Director for 2020 Vision and turn your passion and
enthusiasm into an agent for change in America. It's the opportunity you'll
remember for a lifetime-work together with others to create a safer, cleaner
future; build friendships you'll enjoy for years to come, and gain unique
experience in non-profit advocacy. Energy security is one of the most
