Have you ever considered running for office or helping someone in your community step up to run? Are you wondering what it takes to get on the ballot? And what it takes to win?
If so, this is a great training opportunity that will introduce the ins and outs of successful campaigns! Leadership Education and Development (LEAD)-Vermont is offering multiple upcoming workshops for Vermonters interested in running for elected office or supporting local candidates.
This training is free for participants and is offered on three different Saturdays in locations across Vermont:

Participants will discuss and workshop:
- Building a campaign team, framework, and messaging

A full agenda will be released to registrants prior to the start of the training.
