The Core Organizer Training teaches participants the foundational skills they need to be effective organizers.

The Core Organizer Training teaches participants the foundational skills they need to be effective organizers and win on issues that are important to them.

We train using popular education and integrating experiential education, allowing people to learn in a hands-on, direct manner, while also drawing out the expertise that the individual already has within.

The result is a training that is fully interactive and has direct application in each session. 

Topics covered include: Intro to Organizing, Organizing your Community, Campaign Planning, Facilitating Meetings, Media, Transforming Conflict, and Nonviolent Direct Action.

What: Core Organizer Training. A maximum of 25 people will be trained in order for all to get individual support and for the maximum learning potential for the group.

When: Friday, March 1: 6-9pm

Saturday, March 2: 9am-5pm

Sunday, March 3: 1-5pm

Where: MSPJC, 3573 Southern Ave.
