Prepare for the Elections with AFF’s Community Circle

By: AF Editors

It’s hard to believe we’re already in election season! Are you prepared? Have you kept up with your local elections and the issues that matter most to you?

Sometimes it’s easy to forget that our voices do matter. Whether it’s the presidential election or our local elections, it’s important that we get out and vote. Whether you’re looking to educate yourself, become more confident in discussing issues with those around you, or you just need the motivation to head to the ballot box this November, check out our October Community Circle guide on Preparing for Elections!

The Community Circle Program is an offering exclusively for the new AFF membership. (Membership launches publicly soon!) We’re happy to give our entire AFF Community an opportunity to host for October. For those interested in hosting a Community Circle, here are a few resources worth checking out.

October Community Circle Template – Here’s a step-by-step outline for how to host your own Community Circle, complete with examples.

Community Circle Q&A – This will answer all of your questions about what a Community Circle is and why you might have one.

Community Circle Training Recording – This recording is from a Community Circle Training we recently held. If you have any training-related questions, please reach out to Meg Tuszynski at [email protected].
