#KeepMarching! Audio from MomsRising's Phone Meeting on Advocacy and Organizing
After the Women’s March, women, mothers and others across the country vowed to #KeepMarching—by paying attention, speaking out and showing up, online AND on the ground. MomsRising members are joining together by the thousands, building up their voices and their power in defense of families, communities and our country.
We could not be more proud, and we are with our members every step of the way!
That’s why, on February 21, at 9 PM EST, MomsRising held a Telephone Town Hall to share some of our favorite organizing and advocacy tactics with our members who are ready to do more. The presentation was based on our new advocacy and organizing toolkit, #KeepMarching: MomsRising Advocacy and Organizing Tactics and Tips. We covered:
- How to use petition efforts to have a high impact
- How to hold effective meetings with lawmakers—from your town council to the U.S. Congress
- How to write powerful letters to the editor
- How to use online tools to drive in-person action
- How to pick targets and tactics for maximum impact
- And more
