2012 Democracy for America Training Dates Announced

I went to one of these in Portland, OR in 2005. They're really good if you want to learn the basics of running a grassroots campaigns. I encourage anyone interested to contact DFA.

Anyone else at DU ever attended one of these sessions? I thought the training manual was really useful.
