One-On-One Organizing
A major component in any campaign, One-On-One Organizing is how you develop leaders and activists, and build the commitment necessary to win. Learn how to find leads, cultivate relationships, talk about organizing and power, and ensure that your campaign leaders follow through.
Grassroots Lobbying
The State House doesn’t have to be a mystery! Learn what it takes to make a bill a law, lobby your elected officials, plan and hold a district meeting, and how to prepare for public hearings.
Political Action 101
Learn how to build political power in your own neighborhood. See how political campaigns are structured. Understand what happens during a campaign. Know what it takes to win. And find out how you can get involved.
Values, Vision and Ideas For Building Justice
As social justice activists, our vision for a better society directs our major policy action and our values define how we react and interact with others. However, we often, find it difficult to explain our vision and values (some call it our “worldview”) simply and successfully in our campaigns. This workshop will examine how we can better promote our worldview to build power for social justice change. (Lead Facilitator – Karen Malcolm, Associate Director, Ocean State Action)
