To apply visit: Organizing Institutes

The application process is now open for our weeklong, in-person Community Organizing and Popular Education Institute. ​​Based on Movement Matters' unique field-developed curriculum and nationally recognized training and facilitation style, the Organizing Institute provides an instructive, challenging learning and action space that deepens participants' vision, skills, and capacity. 

“My experience at the Movement Matters Organizing Institute was transformative. The Institute’s facilitators are engaging, and use creative methods to guide participants through the essentials of community organizing and power building. The strategic planning and relationship building techniques I learned at the Institute are effective, and I continue to utilize them in my organizing work today.”

There will be additional 2.5 hour virtual pre-Institute and post-Institute Learning and Action Circles (LACs) to ensure the learning and integration of the materials. MM's training approach is also grounded in somatics, expressive arts, story-sharing, and ritual practices that engage participant's bodies and minds so that they can more fully experience the training content.
