As you may have heard, knocking on voters' doors and engaging them in one-on-one conversations is the single most effective way to win their vote. But maybe you're hesitant about canvassing. A lot of people are! Or, maybe it's been a while, and you need a refresher or just have questions about how it works.

Whether you've never canvassed or just need to shake off the rust, this live training class is for you. We show you what to expect; lead you through the process step-by-step; share tips accumulated over years of experience; and answer all your questions and concerns. And we bring friends from Chicago improv companies to add a little fun and a lot of communication savvy.

This class is led by members of Chicago Indivisible for canvassing in the Northwest Suburbs.
