You ARE the Person Your Community Needs
Harness the Power of your Faith, Culture, and Experience and Get a Campaign DONE by Mid-terms, 2022
YOU are the most powerful resource your community has. We know that people in faith communities can make a gigantic difference and usher in justice in small and big ways.
Join Faith Rooted Organizing with Sandhya and Deb, who have been building campaigns with communities of faith for decades. In this course, you'll select the issue that is most important to YOUR heart. You'll discover how to effectively mobilize your faith community and create justice that lasts.
If you get started now, your campaign will be in place and already changing lives by the mid-term elections of 2022.
Even if you can't make the sessions live, we'll record everything, and you'll get the replays.
