Principles of Community Organizing

Principles of Community Organizing
WORC’s Principles of Community Organizing training develops the skills of leaders and staff to build powerful organizations and launch winning issue campaigns. The hands-on workshop covers the basics of leadership, fundraising, organizational development, and community organizing.
Based on ongoing pandemic conditions and restricted regional travel, we will again offer an online training series this year. The online training series will include a mix of weekday evening and Saturday morning sessions over the course of several weeks beginning in July Final training dates and session content will be posted here by the end of April.
As with our face-to-face training, the sessions will be interactive and build on one another. The training is strengthened with everyone’s full participation. Participants are strongly encouraged to attend the entire training series.
