Join our next support check-in meeting on Zoom Thursday July 11th from 6 to 6:45 Central. We are holding these every other Thursday (except July 4th). 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!
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PRE-REGISTER FOR THIS MEETING! Join Link: https://citizensclimate.zoom.us/j/86803325129?pwd=xdj9NyqLp026JaOpl24Ya35avgAfbi.1 Meeting ID 868 0332 5129; Passcode 123 It’s also posted on our calendar for July 11th.
Between now and the August 13th Wisconsin primary election we are focusing on being a voting resource to our climate-concerned neighbors friends and family members. It’s easy for the primary to fall by the wayside as people go off on vacation or relax and play in the summer. Ask everyone you see if they are planning to vote, make sure they know that CCL opposes the constitutional amendments on the ballot, and help them find whatever information they need.
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
