The DFIA group in 2005 at a statewide meeting w/Jim Dean.
Learn
how to organize your neighborhood, town, or get people moving on your
favorite issue! Find out how to run a campaign, how to get your
message out, how to write an effective letter to the editor of your local paper. This
training is excellent for first-time activists, campaign volunteers and
staff and anyone interested in running for office.
With
Bush and the Republicans out of power, we have a once in a generation
opportunity to enact the progressive ideas we've been fighting for all
these years.
In
2009 let's bring the change we need to our local and state offices and
make sure that all our elected leaders, Republicans and Democrats, know
that we will hold them accountable for their votes.
So
whether you are organizing to pressure your elected officials on
progressive issues or planning a campaign to unseat them, the DFA Campaign Academy has something for you.
Join
us for two days of energizing training as organizers with decades of
experience help you create a step-by-step plan for victory.
Attendees
will also get to hear directly from some of the most exciting
candidates and elected officials in their area and take home a copy of
our 180-page campaign training manual.
Refreshments
will be provided throughout the weekend and a social event will be
organized Saturday evening so you can network with other activists in
your area and make plans for the future.
Tuition is only $60 for the weekend, and limited discounted rates and scholarships are available.
