The source of DSA’s power is our membership. The Growth & Development Committee is committed to recruiting and retaining members while training leaders and organizers.

Apply for the GDC! Members of the GDC:

• Facilitate trainings for chapters
• Mentor chapter leaders
• Run new member orientations
• Call and text lapsed and expired members (and sign up for phone banks in September!)

Request a training for your chapter. We run trainings such as:

• Coalition building
• Structured organizing conversations
• Grassroots fundraising
• Strategic campaigns

Check out the Leadership Intensive, a two-day training for newly elected chapter leaders, from September 23-24.

So many of us get stuck as chapter leaders and could use the help of a coach. You can request a mentor, and we'll match you within four weeks.
