Building Governing Power A One-Day Community Organizing Workshop

Your voice matters. Your community needs you. And the skills to turn your passion into real, lasting change — you can learn them in a single day.

Building Governing Power is a hands-on, beginner-friendly workshop for people who are ready to move from inspired to unstoppable. Whether you’re brand new to organizing or just looking for a starting point, this workshop will give you the tools, strategies, and community connections to make an impact where it matters most — right where you live.

What You’ll Learn:

  • What is Civic Power — Understand where power comes from, who holds it, and how everyday people can claim it, build it, and use it.
  • The Power of Your Story — Learn how storytelling is one of the most powerful tools in any organizer’s toolkit — and how to use your story to move people to action.
  • Building Leaders in Your Community — Discover how to engage your neighbors, develop trust, and grow a network of people ready to fight for change alongside you.
  • Turning Votes into Victory — Explore Inside/Outside strategies that connect electoral power to real policy wins — because elections matter, but they’re just the beginning.
