SUMMARY:Block by Block Training & Action Series | Virtual Training by SURJ
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our ‘Block by Block’ Training & Action Series—a hands-on program designed to help you launch and lead a team for 2026 national campaign! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBlock by Block is SURJ’s 2026 national campaign to elect champions for working people\, block MAGA\, and fight for the future we deserve. We do this through three strategies: Mobilize through mass action\, Elect working class champions\, and Grow a strong\, active base. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis online training series is designed to train and support new groups\, circles and chapters to run Block by Block: Solidarity Rising in your communities for the rest of the year. Groups will deepen organizing skills\, align with national strategy\, and be ready to take action locally. We’ll meet every other week online for training. On the off weeks\, your group will gather locally to practice skills\, grow your base\, and take action. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis training series will consist of three modules\, each focused on one part of our strategy: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGrow Module — March 4 & 18\, 2026\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearn how to bring new people into your group\, plug them into meaningful roles\, build strong and accountable teams\, and develop leaders who can carry the work forward. Growing our base is essential to winning—this is how we build the scale and discipline needed to carry out Block by Block for the rest of the year. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMobilize Module — April 1\, 15 & 29\, 2026\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet trained to organize coordinated\, strategic action using tools of mass noncooperation. Prepare to move quickly when our rights and democracy are threatened\, and build toward May Day: A Day Without Workers. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nElect Module — May 13\, 2026\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearn why governing power is a key part of our strategy and the role your circle\, chapter\, or group can play in supporting progressive candidates and blocking MAGA power. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBy the end of this series\, your group will be ready to grow your base\, mobilize for action\, and take part in electoral strategy. We’ll provide all the structure\, toolkits\, and guidance you need to plug into our national program and make a real difference—block by block. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe encourage at least one member from every group\, circle\, or chapter to join\, but ideally more! Sign up for all the sessions—even if you can’t make them all\, we’ll send recordings so you won’t miss anything. And for more info on the Block by Block campaign\, check out the 1-pager. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister for Details

SUMMARY:Community Resilience\, Readiness and Resistance Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Building our capacity for resilience is an important component of the community organizing work we’re doing here in eastern Massachusetts. The current administration is going to be in power at least through January 2029. That is 30+ more months. They have only been in power for 12 months so far\, which means that we are only about 20% of the way through this presidential term. Figuring out ways to stay engaged will be critical because we are all needed – particularly as we become more comfortable with being engaged in resistance activity and as we move into noncooperation activities. We can each find our own ways of making this work sustainable but it will take some openness to learning\, experimentation\, and practice. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the face of increasing authoritarianism\, this workshop will provide a framework for cultivating readiness and resilience as foundations for long-term resistance\, personal and collective care\, and preparedness for other challenges that lie ahead. Participants will leave with concrete steps for building personal\, household\, community\, and organizational resilience and strengthening our movement to build a democracy that works for everyone. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFounded by Rebecca Riccio\, the BTC is a group of volunteer activists and organizers associated with a variety of racial and social justice-oriented organizations in Greater Boston.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n$10 Donation Suggested to support BTC and provide afternoon snacks!! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nParking: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHighland Ave & Surrounding Streets: 2-hour visitor parking with meters. Note: Somerville residents permits take priority on many streets \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMunicipal Lots: Grove Street Lot A (Rite Aid Lot) at Grove St. & Highland Ave and Grove Street Lot B between Highland Ave and Elm St. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP for Updates\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

We cannot give Trump the attention he wants\, or validate his lies to the American people. We cannot treat this SOTU like business as usual. \n\n\n\n\nGet Link\n\n\n\n\nJoin MeidasTouch and MoveOn as we present the People’s State of the Union alongside elected officials\, partners\, allies and directly impacted Americans. \n\n\n\nAdditional Partners:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWin Without WarCenter for Popular DemocracyClimate PowerCommon DefenseEconomic Security Project ActionFamilies Over BillionairesFWD.usFree DCIndivisibleInterfaith AllianceOur RevolutionPeople Power UnitedProtect Our CarePublic CitizenSocial Security WorksVera ActionVoto Latino
