Public Trainings

Since November 2016, Rising Organizers has trained over 3,000 new activists through our free public trainings. Our organization is built on the belief that everyone has the power to create change, and our public trainings ensure that the skills needed to harness that power are accessible to all.

Led by alumni of Rising Organizers' fellowship program, these trainings help individuals develop the skills they need to become progressive leaders and activists and build strong movements. Trainings vary in content from basic strategy, storytelling, how to have strategic one-on-one conversations, and how to identify and focus on the issues most important to you.

In 2022, we're offering many unique trainings on topics such as:

Basic Training (offered multiple times throughout the year):

• Organizing 101
