Mobile-ize, Organize, and Unionize: day-long training - 6/3 - NYC

10:24 AM May 25, 2011

We're excited about our upcoming event in NYC that we're putting on with Mobile Commons, Organizing 2.0, and the Metro New York Labor Communications Council. Together we've created a day-long training on June 3rd all about using mobile phone technology to beef up your organizing efforts: Mobile-ize, Organize, and Unionize.

With an agenda covering everything from the state of the technology and Salsa integration to list-building strategies and data tracking, attendees will be led through the intensive day of learning by some of the leaders of the mobile organizing sector:

• Katrin Verclas, co-founder and editor at MobileActive.org
• Rachel LaBruyere, director of Mobile Strategy at Mobile Commons
• Reshma Mehta, Legislative Representative for AARP
• Lisa Grob, Communications Manager for Online Activism in the Strategic Communications Department at the Laborer's International Union of North America
• Jess Kutch, Director of Organizing for Economic Justice at Change.org

Although Mobile-ize, Organize, and Unionize is almost sold out, we want to highly encourage any staff members working with a union and using Salsa to contact the event organizers - they'll do everything they can to get you there even if the event does sell out!

Be sure to check out all of the sponsoring organizations - Mobile Commons, Organizing 2.0, and the Metro New York Labor Communications Council - to read more about organizing and mobile technology strategies.
