Now is an urgent time to be finding opportunities to cultivate new alliances, build unity and solidarity in order to wage the defensive fights needed in this period and to take advantage of the opportunities to go on offense. We can't do it alone. #TuesdayTips #socialimpact #socialjustice #impact #nonprofit

Mark your calendars for this upcoming event, Meet Horizon Philanthropy, on March 11 at 1pm EST to learn more about how we are joining the fight to build an inclusive, multiracial democracy. During this hour, we will share Horizon’s origin story and theory of change, as well as more details on our different areas of work with a dynamic discussion including Abigail Levine, Executive Director of the Jewish Social Justice Roundtable, Ginna Green & Becky Silverstein of Horizon Philanthropy, and Bryan Perlmutter, Principal with Piece by Piece Strategies.

Demonstrations and other spontaneous expressions of outrage from below are and will continue to break out as the attacks continue. Finding ways to intervene and build organization from these moments will be critical to prepare for the fights ahead. #TuesdayTips #socialjustice #impact #socialimpact #tactics

Our history is rich with lessons - now is a valuable time to revisit and draw from history pieces that can be applied to our conditions today. #TuesdayTips #strategy #impact #socialimpact #socialjustice

Particularly now, linking our day to day fights around immediate issues to a broader program for social change will be necessary to building the types of movements that can challenge and ultimately vie for power. #TuesdayTips #socialimpact #impact #vision #socialjustice

The unprecedented challenges we face are a charge for new and creative ways to organize. Looking for opportunities to scaffold and connect different work together will be key to broaden our movements to take on these numerous challenges. #TuesdayTips #strategy #impact #socialimpact #socialjustice

A political coalition of some of the most reactionary and opportunist sections of the elite has banded together to launch a radical agenda aimed at rolling back social progress won through struggle over the last 50+ years. One of the best ways we can block their ability to move forward and consolidate their agenda is to expose their contradictions at every turn. #TuesdayTips #socialjustice #impact #socialimpact #progress

The best defense is a good offense. Finding ways to intervene and expand our base in the fights that are sure to come in the period ahead will be key. #TuesdayTips #strategy #impact #socialimpact #socialjustice

I’m so excited to share I've recently completed the Changemaker Legislative Bootcamp! Huge thanks to the Youth Action Fund, Piece by Piece Strategies, Progressive Leadership Initiative Education Fund (PLIEF), and The Youth Democracy Lab for hosting! Over the past few weeks, I have learned invaluable skills related to governing power, constituent service provision, inside-outside strategies, communication management, and legislative knowledge! Thanks to interactive workshops, high-intensity team activities, and simulations- I gained experience with organizing legislative advocacy campaigns, drafting state policy, navigating constituent service provision, and most importantly, media press releases! I am especially grateful to the amazing group of people I was able to work alongside. They made this experience deeply impactful through mutual aid and mentoring each other with skills to help all of us become more well-rounded people! Special thanks to Sarahi A. Perez, dash. Rodriguez, Phoenix Boland, Simone Liang and many more from this bootcamp! I want to give more thanks to my mentors, including Alex Ames, Clovis Westlund, Julian F., Cameron Driggers, Trevor Wild, Sergio Cartagena, and Maxx Fenning, whose leadership, responsiveness, and presentations were unrivaled. I am actively seeking opportunities in the fields of advocacy, organizing, community outreach, and constituent services to put these skills to use and create change in my community. #YouthAction #ChangemakerBootcamp #CommunityOutreach #Advocacy #DigitalOutreach #PublicService #MediainGovernment #Leadership
