Paid training and support for local organizers
Posted by Web Editor on December 4th, 2007
The Direct Action & Research Training (DART) Center will accept applications and resumes until December 31 from persons wanting to learn and work for social and economic justice in the DART Organizers Institute’s paid, four-month community organizing training program, which will run from June 16 through October 5, 2008. DART’s organizers will live in low-to-moderate income neighborhoods and work on issues such as schools, job training, drugs, violence, affordable housing, criminal recidivism, and neighborhood revitalization. The DART Organizers Institute combines a 7-day classroom experience with 15-week field training work. DART’s program is designed to prepare people for relevant careers.
