Note: the June 6th check-in has been cancelled because it’s so close to the national conference. Join our next support check-in meeting on Zoom Thursday June 20th from 6 to 6:45 Central. We are holding these every other Thursday (except July 4th). The dates are May 9, May 23, June 6, June 20, July 11, July 25, and Aug 8. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PRE-REGISTER FOR THIS MEETING! To get the Zoom link, go to cclwi.org/calendar-for-CCL-Wisconsin and click on the event on the June 20th calendar page.
These meetings are for everyone who is or intends to be holding conversations with people in their personal networks who are environmental supporters but don’t vote regularly. Paticipants have loved them!
We know that conversations with the people around us are important, and yet it also can be hard to do. We are all learners in this undertaking so the Zoom check-in lets us share what we are learning, practice our techniques, set personal goals and cheer each other on! If you missed the training, you can watch the videos and learn more at the check-ins. [Note: We are not recording the check-in meetings]
Conversations with people in our social networks make a difference because:
- We can reach people that aren’t registered, aren’t on campaign lists, or don’t respond to phone calls from unknown callers.
- We can take more time to listen and respond to them, and talk more than once.
- We learn communication skills that are useful throughout our advocacy work and lives.
- We start or deepen relationships in our community
You can get more information on our team page on our cclwi.org website.
