If we want to flip districts from red to blue, we need to invest in local organizing that educates voters, builds trust in government, and regularly engages community members. We can’t just do it by showing up in the weeks before the election and asking people to vote. Join us in learning about long-term, effective community organizing that’s happening in the Central Valley and helping us prepare for 2022.
