Organizing Fellowship
“Vigilance alone can keep alive the validity of the goals and the genuine assertion of freedom” - Simone de Beauvoir
The Organizing Fellowship is an experiential learning program for leaders who take action to revitalize democracy and empower their local communities. Fellows meet in citywide chapters to learn the first principles of community organizing, engage in personal reflection, and take collective action.
