VOLUNTEER TRAINING
The world isn’t business as usual, and neither are our volunteer trainings. We’ve reorganized our training sessions into three touchpoints to stay informed about Fieldworks trips, get regular updates from our team, and learn how to engage with voters.
We don’t just get ready. We stay ready.
VOLUNTEER ACTION CALL
Join us to learn how we're adapting to meet the moment, be a part of CP’s 2025 strategy, get the latest action opportunities, and hear important updates. Content will change each session, so be the first to preview upcoming training and connect with our Fieldwork team on a regular basis to be part of a community of civic volunteers.
Bi-weekly on Tuesdays at 5pm PST over Zoom
STATE TEAM MEETINGS
General Elections, Special Elections, Ballot curing, Runoffs, and Primaries, we’ll doorknock for it all! Each race has its quirks, so our traveling and training depend. The best way to get info about traveling with us and training is to attend the regular Team Community Meetings. You’ll hear about trip logistics and political details specific to a State Team, and meet the Team Leads and other volunteers you’ll be traveling with.
VOLUNTEER TRAINING:
ENGAGING WITH VOTERS
Need some practice on what to say to voters? We’ll go over different types of voter conversations, engagement techniques, and scenarios that we hope will empower you to knock doors and feel confident to speak to voters this year.
This is a space to share challenges, solutions, and strategies to talk to voters in all our actions.
Now occurring once a month at 5 pm over Zoom.
VOLUNTEER TRAINING LIBRARY
We have all of our major volunteer trainings recorded and reference documents for each training that applies. From phonebanking, voter engagement, to voter registration references, the Volunteer Training Library has training materials dating back to 2020.
