Hello –
At the Campaign for Southern Equality, we believe deeply in supporting grassroots leaders on the frontlines of the South. That’s why we provide direct funding through our Southern Equality Fund and will be giving out more than $80,000 in grassroots grants across the South in 2019.
But we also know that funding alone is not enough to sustain grassroots LGBTQ leaders and amplify the impact of their work. Grassroots leaders also need a continuous flow of resources, including relationships with peer organizers, individualized coaching, and training.
To fill this gap, we’re hosting a series of three grassroots training webinars this fall to support organizers on the ground, and we hope you’ll tune in for them. Read more about the webinars below, then click here to RSVP!
Old Southern Ways: A Pilot Project On LGBTQ Healing Justice in the South
Wednesday, September 18, 6:30-8:00pm ET
This interactive webinar will discuss CSE’s healing justice pilot project that includes using somatics as a theory of change and as a healing modality, led by Holiday Simmons, CSE's Resident in Healing and Resilience. Building on lessons learned from this work, the webinar will feature a discussion of how Southern organizers can integrate healing justice into their work.
Language Justice: Building Multilingual Spaces and Movements
Wednesday, October 16, 6:30-8:00PM ET
Cenzontle Language Justice Cooperative will create dialogue for participants to explore their vision and roles in working for language justice, and explore emerging language justice practices and tools to build multilingual spaces and movements.
Grant Writing for Southern Organizers: Finding and Applying for Your First Grant
Thursday, December 5, 6:30-8:00PM ET
This webinar will provide new grantseekers in the LGBTQ South with techniques, tools, and strategies for finding and applying for their first (or second or third) grant.
Want to join us for any – or all three – of these webinars? Click here to RSVP and we’ll keep you up to date.
Thank you,
