QUILT and Middle TN DSA are beginning our Organizer School! We have a series of trainings, all free, for people SERIOUS about becoming organizers. We need more organizers, and we need more queer organizers to make serious change in this state! More to be added soon!

• Organizer Attitudes and One-on-One trainings
• Outreach, Mobilization, and More
• Building Mass Organizations
• Power Mapping
• Expanding Accessibility
• Conflict Resolution
• Leadership, Leadership Development, and Identification
• Protest Planning, Safety, and Risk Analysis

FAQS:

• I’m not able to make it in-person, can I attend virtually?
  • Yes! All of our sessions and materials will be available virtually. We encourage you to make it in-person, but it is not required.
• Do I need to attend every training to sign up?
  • No! You can attend any single event.
• Do I need to pay to attend?
  • No! These are entirely free.
• Do I need any previous training?
  • No! These are intended for beginners
• I’m not part of QUILT or I am not queer--can I still attend?
  • Yes! Everyone is invited, this is not exclusive to queer people or queer organizers. Some of the curriculum will focus on identity and a focus on the queer working class. These skills are entirely transferable to other contexts!
