Dear {{ FirstName | default: 'friends' }},

 

We hope you had a blessed Easter. 

Battleground States Update

Catholics Vote Common Good is set to gear up on the ground in three key battleground states with high populations of Catholic Voters: Michigan; Pennsylvania; and Wisconsin. 


Our Michigan ground efforts will be led by Victoria Kovari, Pennsylvania will be led by Kevin Hayes, and Christopher Cox will be heading Wisconsin. If you would like to learn more about these efforts, please complete this form:

Catholic Voter Workshops

Our friends at Network are offering a series of energizing, educational, and engaging workshops this spring. The first round of workshops will be offered online from April 9-May 4.

 

In “Informed, Engaged, and Committed: NETWORK’s 2024 Election Training Series,”participants will dig deeper into what it means to be a Catholic, multi-issue voter; learn strategies to engage people in challenging conversations and build hope-filled narratives that inspire people to care about important issues; and explore concrete actions you can take to be effective this election season.

 

You’ll notice that each workshop session has multiple time slots – you only need to sign up for one since the content will be repeated. You do not have to sign up for the same time slot each week. We hope that you can attend all four workshops in the series, but we will welcome your participation in any!
