This training is open to all progressive staff and any volunteer ready to take a leap in their organizing skills and walk away with an understanding of MPA's leadership model and to be aware of their own leadership development and learning goals. This event will occur the third Thursday of every month, 5:30-7:30 pm, at the Lewiston MPA office.

Because space is limited, we may not be able to accept everyone who applies. Please tell us a little bit about yourself and why you want to come to the training.

We aim to offer these trainings to as many people as possible to strengthen the progressive movement. While there are costs involved—staff time, food, venue rental, and materials—the fee we’re asking for covers the basics. However, we don’t want cost to be a barrier for anyone. If you can’t pay the full amount, simply pay what you can afford. And if you’re unable to pay at all, please apply anyway—we’ll do our best to accommodate you! If accepted into the program, the trainer will discuss with you about payment options and sliding fees.
