Join the Rhode Island Working Families Campaign School!


It is clear our government isn’t living up to our values of justice and solidarity, both locally and nationally. The good news? We can change that through elections.

The 2020 elections are critically important nationally and could be a turning point toward progressive governance here in Rhode Island too. A year from now, we will be in the thick of campaigns. That’s why we’re working NOW to have an outstanding team of candidates, campaign leaders, and activists who are ready for the fight. At WFP, we know good campaigns build community, elect great people to public office, and elevate critical issues. Join us this fall to learn how to work on campaigns that will make change and reorient the direction of our state and country.

We are launching WFP Campaign School this fall. Sessions will take place on Tuesday evenings in September, October, and November at 6:00pm and cover everything from how to target voters to how to create effective messages around race and class that build solidarity. Take every session or just the ones that interest you! Sign up below and we’ll get you all the details as we gear up for 2020.
