Find your way.
Keep the work moving.
Looking for a resource or figuring out how to use it with your group? Start here.

Getting started
Where should I begin?
Choose middle school, high school, campus, or community. Already know what you need help with? Head to Resources and search for the situation, like planning a meeting or taking over a club.
Do I need a leadership title?
No. You can be curious about joining a club, helping with a project, or speaking up about something you care about. Start with the Starting out pages if you’re still figuring it out.
Which guide fits my setting?
First Move is for middle school. Onward is for high school. Assembly is our college initiative, with a core guide and practical resources for campus organizations. Public Good supports community roles.
How do Assembly and its resources fit together?
Assembly is our college initiative. Its resources include the core guide and practical guidance for campus roles, meetings, shared responsibilities and handovers.
Explore AssemblyWhat is Of Us?
Of Us is about belonging, wellbeing, identity, and connection. It makes room for the person you are alongside the roles you take on, whether you’re at school, on campus, or in your community.
Finding a resource
How do the library filters work?
Choose your audience, then Starting out or Leading now. Add a search word, like meetings or funding, to narrow it down. Select Reset to see everything again.
What if I do not find a match?
Try a shorter search or select Reset. You can also browse by what you’re trying to do, like write a proposal, plan an event, or hand over your role.
What is the difference between a guide, a task and a practice example?
A guide covers a bigger topic. A task page helps with one thing you need to do. A practice example gives you a situation to talk through before you look at a possible response.
Using the work
How should I use a resource?
Pick the part that fits what you’re working on. Read it, talk it through with your group, and decide what to try. Check your school’s or organization’s rules before making a commitment on its behalf.
Can I read the resources online?
Yes. Every resource page has an online overview and ideas to try. Where a PDF is available, Open PDF opens it in a new tab and Download PDF saves a copy. The student toolkit also has editable templates.
Can we work through a practice example together?
Yes. Read the situation together and share what each of you would do. Then open the possible response. It’s a starting point for discussion, so talk about what you’d change for your own group.
Educators and advisors
How can an educator or advisor use the materials?
Connect a resource to something students are actually working on. Ask them to explain their thinking, be clear about which decisions they can make, and check in after they’ve tried it.
What if a situation needs more support?
Talk with a trusted adult, advisor, or the office responsible for the issue. If someone’s safety is at risk, or the situation involves discrimination or a formal complaint, get help from the appropriate school or local service. A worksheet isn’t a substitute for that support.
