G.O.T. PODER!
Grassroots Organizers Training for Power, is a unique training in the Mid-South, the only one offered in Spanish for developing community organizing skills.
MSPJC’s fourth annual grassroots organizer training for the Spanish-speaking community will take place Friday, August 9th through Sunday, August 11th. This three-day, 16-hour training has been vital for the growth of Latino grassroots organizers in Memphis and the Mid-South. In this year’s training, participants will have a unique opportunity to share and grow with a respected local and state activist of the Latino-Immigrant community of Tennessee!
