DemTEAM

The Milwaukee County Democrats are holding their second DemTEAM (Democratic Training for Elections and Actions in Milwaukee) opportunity on January 15, 2011.

The purpose of DemTEAM, as the name implies, is to help build a larger, stronger Democratic community. To be successful winning elections and moving progressive issues forward, there is a need for a well-trained, well-connected network of activists, staff and candidates.

There’s a lot at stake, and in order to create progress in Milwaukee County we need to elect strong progressive leaders. We need to engage local activists and make sure that our elected officials are working for the betterment of our community.

To achieve these goals, we need a strong Democratic turnout for Milwaukee. The DemTEAM training helps to build a stronger, more strategic community of Democrats in Milwaukee County to run campaigns, plan events, recruit new members, stand for office, and advance progressive values and causes.

You can access the application by clicking here. As noted on the application, the cost is $30, but there are scholarship opportunities based on need. Breakfast and lunch are included with the training.

The deadline for applications is 5 p.m. on January 4th, so get yours in right away.
