These are difficult times for people who value an inclusive, progressive, and hopeful America. Yet there is hope bubbling up all around us as lifelong organizers and activists join with new converts to fight back against harmful policies emanating from Springfield and Washington. 

In Illinois, we'd like to help accelerate this process by hosting a large one day "resource fair" where activists, professional organizers, 1st-timers, and everyone in between can come together and channel their energies and frustrations into local organizations doing work right here, right now. We're excited to do so in partnernship with Democratic GAIN, the premier national membership association for progressive political professionals and organizations. 

Working with a host committee of 50+ committed and experienced organizers and activists, along with Democratic GAIN, we want to provide professional development opportunities for people seeking employment in the progressive movement while also offering local organizations who are hiring or foresee doing so in the coming months, a convenient opportunity to gather resumes.
