Virtual Game Night 🎮
Saturday January 30 | 5:00 PM (Register)
Socialize with some socialists! We're hosting another virtual game night to fend off the pandemic blues this Saturday. You’ve seen AOC play Among Us on Twitch—join in on the fun! We’ll be playing Among Us and a variety of games from JackBox in two different Zoom rooms. Stay the whole time, or just pop in when you're free for a bit. We hope to see you there!
TRAINING: How to have an organizing (1:1) conversation
Saturday January 30 | 1:00 PM (Register)
Wanna know how to make a membership ask? Learn how to get people involved in DSA and motivate folks to take on responsibility.
Denver DSA is hosting its first training in a six-month organizing training series. Maybe you’ve been a member for years or you just joined last week—either way, knowing how to have an organizing conversation and how to make a direct ask is central to building power and growing this movement. Join us as we learn about what an organizing conversation is and how you can feel confident and capable to lead one yourself! Come learn with us at bit.ly/ddsa-training
Jail Support is starting back up! Help us fill shifts and remote admin positions
Our jail support team is planning to restart our jail support effort in February. We will have volunteers in front of Denver City Jail giving food, water, hand warmers, hygiene packs, attention and care to recently released folks and anyone who passes by. We need your help filling shifts at the jail on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays between 10:30 AM—4:30 PM. If volunteering in person isn’t feasible for you, we need lots of help with our remote admin positions! Sign up for both in person and remote work here.
Join us as we support and sustain this crucial form of mutual aid and give care and community to people that the state and city have failed. Learn more about our jail support effort at linktr.ee/jailsupport. If you missed our recent all-volunteer meeting on Jan. 23, you can watch the recording here! Password to view: 5e4*xB=$
