Community Organizers

Develop ways to build power within and strengthen your community.

We all have ideas for how to strengthen the communities we call home, and we know that relying on others to make these changes happen is often a lost cause or at best a slow process. You bring the intimate knowledge of your community, and I bring the skills and strategic planning for community organizing. Together we can start to make the dreams for your community a reality.

No matter where you are in your organizing campaign, I offer packages to both meet you where you are and simultaneously push you forward.

Whether that is launching your leadership team, clarifying who you want to organize, or building a campaign timeline, I can support you in taking that next step towards success.

**On this page, you will find that verbiage used focuses on community organizers – to make the information as clear as possible. That said, I do this work as a consultant and facilitator for a variety of individuals and organizations, adapting materials for college campuses, athletic departments, grassroots organizers, community groups and leaders in the private sector.

Strategic Planning

Package Starts at $249

Are you struggling to build momentum in your campaign? Do you have a clear end goal but do not know how to get there? Have you thought of creative campaign tactics but no one is showing up?

Then this session is for you.

In this session, we will address a specific challenge you are facing in your campaign. Some challenges include:

  • How do I decide who I am organizing?

  • How can I create a sustainable infrastructure?

  • How do I build a campaign that brings people in?

  • What events should I hold?

  • What order should I hold the events?

  • What outcome should we be working towards?

  • How will we measure success? 

Through direct coaching, I will provide specific tools and strategies to improve your campaign so that you are utilizing the resources of your community and building the power of your constituency as you go. After the call, I will send an Action Document with information, coaching questions, and specific strategies to use moving forward.
