The Women’s Political Caucus has partnered up with the Heartland Democrats of America to bring you a comprehensive training about organizing your campaign and speaking to voters about values. The training is geared toward all candidates as well as people who want to work on a campaign.
Details for the event are as follows:
Date, Time and Location
March 22. 2008
Screenland Theater
1656 Washington St.
Kansas City, Missouri 64108
7:30 am – 5:00 pm
Cost
Volunteers: $ 35.00 (Includes 1/2 day training on values by Heartland Democrats, 1/2 day campaign organization and logistics training and lunch with Mary O'Halloran on persuasive speaking.)
Candidates: $ 50.00 (Includes all of the above plus private stump speech sessions with Mary O'Halloran. You must come prepared with your own two minute stump speech.)
The first part of your day will be spent on framing the values issues that are currently at the forefront of our society including Abortion, Gun Control, Gay Rights and God.
We will then break for Lunch with Mary O'Halloran leading a workshop on persuasive speaking. Mary is a political activist and professional media consultant, who is currently a co-host of Ruckus on KCPT. After lunch, candidates will have a one on one public speaking lesson with Mary. We ask that you please bring a prepared 2 minute stump speech.
After lunch the rest of your day will focus on logistics training and how to organize/run a campaign.
Please join us for this unique training opportunity tailored to the needs of political candidates and volunteers. The Women’s Political Caucus, through the support of EEF, and in partnership with Heartland Democrats is trying to bring you a revolutionary program that will help both candidates and campaign volunteers learn how to talk to the public about the issues at hand. Our goal is to steer the current political conversation towards the issues the Progressives believe in, through a non-partisan training.
We are asking that you register for the trainings by March 14th.
Should you have any questions about the program, please contact the Kansas GKCWPC Training and Recruitment chair Lindsay Gentry.
