#spring26 I’d like to get into advocacy or lobbying for nonprofits, what pathways lead to or prepare you for these types of positions ?
What is a solid pathway to advocacy for reentry programs and nonprofits in general? Are there any colleges that you can recommend? Groups or organizations that I should look into? How can I earn money in this field?
I need some tips on my current career plan. Help please?
Sorry for the radio silence! I totally forgot to check back here, but I’ve been busy finalizing my roadmap. I’m 16 now (March 22) and fully committed to becoming a Creative Director and a business owner. I actually pivoted from my original business idea to focus on building a cohesive brand instead. Right now, I’m grinding through dual enrollment at Chaffey College to knock out my GEs and my AA-T in Studio Art while I'm still in high school. My plan is to transfer to CSUSB for a BFA in Design with a minor in Business Administration to get that management foundation. After that, I’m aiming for UCLA or another top UC to get my Master’s (MFA). To make this happen without debt, I’m planning to join the Air National Guard as a Public Affairs Specialist. This will let me serve in California while the state pays for my Bachelor's and Master's degrees. I’d love to hear your thoughts: Do these schools align well with a career in Creative Direction? Also, for those who have served, do you have any tips on balancing a BFA workload with the National Guard? #Spring26

What is the career path to a successful career in politics?
What is the career path to working in politics? Politics seems really broad--working in government, working for companies or nonprofits that work with government--and I am a bit confused by the different options. But if I'm interested in figuring out what's politics is like in general (and I do have some interest in non-profits), what should I think about doing? #career-paths #government #politics #nonprofits
