NAACP Local ACT-SO Programs

The success of ACT-SO is due largely to the dedication of the ACT-SO local sponsoring unit adult volunteers, mentors and coaches. These individuals volunteer their time and resources to the youth of their communities. The following NAACP Units may sponsor an ACT-SO program:

The responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Hosting a yearlong ACT-SO program from September – July of each year.
• Organizing an adult ACT-SO committee to implement the program
• Hosting a local ACT-SO competition in February thru April 30th of each year.
• Participating in the National ACT-SO Competition
