I’m a woman but I am not a Democrat. Is this the right training for me?
Yes, this training is non-partisan.
I’m a pro-choice Democratic woman! However, I do not reside in New York State. May I still sign up?
Hooray! While some of the information in our trainings may be broadly applied to progressive women running across the country, much of what we learn is tailored to New York State. You are welcome to join us, but there may be an organization offering a more local approach.
