re:Power Campaign School Series: Launching & Managing Canvasses

The re:Power Campaign School Series is designed as mini-workshops for the everyday organizer. re:Power has identified a lesson plan of foundational and core trainings that will help organizers build, win and sustain campaigns.

Upcoming Workshops:

Launching & Managing Canvasses - September 8, 12-2pm PT

In this two-part workshop we will focus on one of the key ingredients of a successful field program: the door-to-door canvass. Participants will learn how to effectively set up canvasses and manage canvass staff through best practices and role playing.

Physical Safety - September 22, 12-2pm PT

Political violence and voter suppression tactics are at an all-time high this election season. In response to this reality, we’ve created this brand new workshop to prepare leaders to build organizational practices that address, respond to and prevent violence and harm targeted to disrupt electoral organizing efforts. Join us for this 2.5 hour training to strengthen your internal and external electoral safety practices for your campaign.

Digital Security - October 6, 12-2pm PT

The Digital Security training will support participants to better understand the difference between safety and security, to practice making their campaigns more secure across all devices, and to become more confident in their ability to protect themselves and others from potential harm online.
