Community Groundwork, co-founded by Mike Ceraso, offers students a 20-hour course in grassroots politics including campaign organizing, data management and analysis, communications, digital storytelling, advertising, legislative policymaking and implementation. Once the students complete the coursework they are each matched with a mentor who works in the field that student wishes to pursue. The mentors are tasked with introducing the students to “professional opportunities with the prospect of gainful employment.”
