John, Night School is back!!
Night School is our online campaign skills instruction, where some of the savviest campaigners in the movement lead you through virtual trainings on field strategy, volunteer recruitment, coalition-building, power mapping, paid/earned media and messaging, finance planning, grassroots fundraising, and more.
We aren't going to see the change we want by relying on old ideas, the same consultants, corporate money, or failed strategies. You have the power to change America and give power back to the people, so with our next 3 sessions of Night School starting this August, will you sign up to join our Night School waitlist now?
YES! I would love to join the DFA nightschool waitlist and receive detailed updates as the sessions approach.
No, I can't signup today -- but I'll chip in $10 now to make DFA’s Night School a success.
It’s no secret that turnout in midterm elections is often much lower than it should be.
What causes this persistent problem is inside-the-beltway conventional wisdom that says campaigns should focus all their resources on a tiny pool of wealthy white suburban voters at the expense of everyone else. This produces a constant cycle where big Democratic Party institutions often ignore voters of color, rural white voters, progressives, and young people, locking a lot of potentially transformative voters, candidates, and campaigners out of the process entirely.
The truth is, if we want to run successful campaigns, we need to build a reflective democracy, where our political process reflects the lived experiences, needs, and values of all people across America.
To do that, we know that we must expand our voter targeting, persuasion, and turnout models -- and we've got the perfect training for you to learn how we do just that!
Starting next month, we will be hosting our first Night School sessions since 2020, where our organizing team will detail how we build winning campaigns by emphasizing working on the ground and speaking to voters directly.
This virtual night school enables us to take the energy and power of progressives and continue building out fundamental skills so that our campaigns can be expansive, including a larger share of our voting base.
So, with limited availability for our Night School Sessions, will you sign-up to be on our waitlist to join DFA and progressives from around the country starting next month?
YES! I would love to join the DFA nightschool waitlist and receive detailed updates as the sessions approach.
No, I can't signup today -- but I'll chip in $10 now to make DFA’s Night School a success.
Thank you for supporting us and joining us for these essential discussions, we can't wait to see you next month.
