HRC Camp Equality
Description
This year, Arizona will be a key state for elections up and down the ballot. Victories will bring our community another step forward to passing important legislation. With the possibility of a mean-spirited and divisive ballot measure this November to define marriage as between one man and one woman, it is even more important for our community to step up and get involved.
The Human Rights Campaign will be on the campaign trail every step of the way – and we want you to be a part of it, too. That’s why we’re holding Camp EqualityTM – a weekend-long training session to develop and hone campaign skills – in Phoenix on May 9-11.
Whether you are just getting involved in the electoral process or are a campaign professional, Camp EqualityTM can help you learn how to become more effective at advocating your causes and your candidates.
We will offer two training tracks:
• Fundamentals Track: Designed to give you the step by step fundamentals necessary to be successful at the grassroots level. Topics will include: planning, recruitment, volunteer coordinating, earned media, and creating a local activist plan. You will learn the basic skills that are essential to winning at the grassroots level.
• Advanced Track: For our more seasoned activist or campaign professionals. This track offers the fundamentals of political campaign management. During your sessions you will learn advanced techniques of field organizing, media relations, volunteer coordination, targeting, candidate relations, and the latest campaign technology.
If you have ever thought about volunteering for a campaign or already have experience in campaigns, we hope that you will take advantage of this excellent opportunity to gain valuable skills that you can apply to all aspects of campaign operations.
Registration for Camp EqualityTM is $50 and includes a one-year HRC membership.
