Hey all,
The Effecting Change: Tools for Our Generation activist conference needs volunteers to help with outreach and event support the weekend of. If you have some free time right now to help send out emails, make phone calls, and put up posters, email Jen Power the Volunteer Coordinator at volunteers@actionnw.net. If you have time the weekend of April 27th-29th, email Jen too. Either way, specify what you want to help with and how much time you think you can commit (approx).
The Effecting Change conference also needs workshop leaders - look at the letter below to figure out how to apply :)
Dear Tribe.net member:
The "Effecting Change" conference is back for its second year, sponsored
by the Gay-Straight Alliance at Seattle University. It'll be
the same environmental and social justice training event, but bigger and
better than before. The conference will at Seattle University on April
27th-29th, 2007.
The mission of "Effecting Change" is to bring together a wide range of
activists to mix, mingle, and learn the skills they need to effect change
in their communities. We want to inspire people to become leaders,
working effectively towards a just and sustainable world. Our theme this
year is "do-it-yourself" - the focus is to give activists the basic skills
it takes to get out there and start change on their own. Potential
workshop topics include Self Defense Training, Creating and Communicating
Your Message, Equality Training 101, and How to Plan a Successful Event.
These are only a few examples of the multitude of workshops we hope to
gather together at "Effecting Change". We welcome you to bring your
expertise and experience to the conference by leading a workshop of your
own. Please send us an email to tfogworkshops@gmail.com with:
. your name
. preferred title and pronoun
. organizational affiliation
. city/region you're from
. working workshop title
. workshop description
. your relevant background/ qualifications to teach this workshop
. scheduling preferences (if any, for either Saturday or Sunday)
. technical needs for the workshop (AV equipment, etc.)
Please send in your application as soon as possible; we hope to begin reviewing
applications in early March.
Hope to hear from you soon,
Jennifer Power
