Welcome to MoveOn’s 2013 Organizing Summits

Welcome to MoveOn’s 2013 Organizing Summits

Join hundreds of other local progressives for two days of fun and training!

MoveOn staff and leaders are coming to communities across the country for two days of top-notch grassroots training. All you need to bring is an issue that you’re passionate about. We’ll go over how to develop a campaign strategy, how to pull off a successful press conference or meeting with an elected official, and how to use an online petition to build your network and power your campaign. And if you’re already working on an issue, these summits will give you a new tool set to help power your campaign even further.

Each training is two days and free to attend for any local progressive. Lunch and refreshments will be provided both days and travel assistance is available to those in need.

Here’s what you’ll learn at a MoveOn Organizing Summit:

  • Finding your issue and telling your story – You’ll learn about important progressive issues in your area and develop your powerful personal story about why you want to make a difference.
  • Developing your strategy and creating your petition – You’ll create a compelling progressive message for your campaign and create an exciting petition to launch.
  • Building and engaging your base – You’ll learn how to grow your petition and mobilize your signers to take action.
  • Engaging your target and turning up the heat – You’ll learn how organize a great delivery event, get press coverage, and turn up the heat on your target.

There is no fee to attend and travel scholarships are available. Lunch and snacks will be provided for free both days

Space is limited, so RSVP today!
