This is a program where we connect expert fundraisers, digital campaigners, and field gurus to courageous activists and organizers who have had enough and want to run for public office at the local, state, or federal level. If you are a grassroots across-the-board progressive committed to centering working people and human rights in policymaking and fighting corporate money in politics, join our new candidate coaching program and prepare to run a spirited and principled campaign and serve your community.
What to expect:
- A community of future candidates will become your friends and support network.
- Tips on navigating a taxing candidacy journey with resiliency, grace, and perspective will empower you to have the healthiest campaign experience possible.
- You’ll gain an understanding of the different phases of the campaign and what you, as a candidate, should prioritize to optimize your path to victory.
- Discussions about how to make mutual aid integral to your campaign.
- Access to educational policy seminars and primers will help you clearly and confidently communicate your policy vision.
- Online group meetings and one-on-one coaching will provide valuable information, access to tools, connections to experts, and a workshop to develop your game plan for launching the campaign.
Our candidate sessions are on going and once you join the program, you'll receive an invitation when the next session is scheduled. We meet somewhat irregularly every few weeks on Thursday at 7 pm ET.
