Reproductive Justice & M4A
Thursday, June 1, 2022

4:00-5:00PM eastern / 3:00-2:00PM central / 1:00-2:00PM pacific

Medicare for All can help to move us closer to a healthcare system that truly respects life — including the lives of people who get pregnant, whether or not they decide to give birth. We will go into the current reproductive health crisis in the US, where we have the highest maternal and infant mortality rates in the developed world, and access to abortion is erratic, even in the states where it isn’t criminalized altogether. These problems are connected, and guaranteeing reproductive healthcare to everyone in this country through Medicare for All is a critical step towards equity in our society.

Telling Your Healthcare Story
Thursday, June 8, 2023

1:00-2:30PM eastern / 12:00-1:30PM central / 10:00-11:30AM pacific

Our vision is to develop a national network of speakers and writers whose powerful personal testimony about the U.S. healthcare system will serve as the public face of the urgent, moral call for Medicare for All. To join us - please sign up below!

Your healthcare story is the most powerful message for Medicare for All - far more important than economic arguments, or data about uninsurance and bankruptcy rates. In this 90 minute training*, we will teach you the craft of story-telling and help you develop a moving 2-minute version of your healthcare story. We will share your story on our website, making your testimony available for op-eds, letters to the editor, Healthcare-NOW reports, public hearings, and for reporters interested in your experience with the healthcare system.

Learn how racism has shaped our for-profit healthcare system and how Medicare for All could be a significant step towards racial justice!

Strategy - Campaigns - Tactics
Thursday, June 22, 2023

4:00-5:00PM eastern / 3:00-4:00PM central / 1:00-2:00PM pacific

This training will teach you:

• how to develop a good long-term strategy to win Medicare for All (or any other social change);
• how to know when you’re ready for “end-game” tactics vs. when you need to build more organizing capacity first; and
• how to develop medium-term campaigns that bring you measurably closer to winning, and give hope to your activists!

Connecting With Your Base
Thursday, June 29, 2023

8:00-9:00PM eastern / 7:00-8:00PM central / 5:00-6:00PM pacific

To accomplish the goal of revolutionizing the US healthcare system, we are going to need to build power, and the best way we know how to do that is through grassroots organizing. Organizing is all about fostering long-term relationships between people with shared values, so connecting with others who support a just and equitable healthcare system is the first step! In this workshop, we’ll go over recruitment strategies, the art of the one-on-one organizing conversation, and how to engage others so that they can also grow and become leaders in our movement. All levels of experience are welcome, from folks who are new to organizing to more experienced folks who want a refresher on basic organizing skills.
