EMILY’s List

On March 19th and 20th, EMILY’s List and BlueFlower Fund will be offering a terrific training opportunity for pro-choice Democratic women in Colorado and surrounding states. We would like to extend an invitation for you or someone you know to participate in the training.

As you may know, EMILY’s List is a political donor network and political resource for pro-choice Democratic women candidates. EMILY's List has initiated a program designed to recruit and train women to run for and serve in elected office in the states. Whether currently serving on the school board, in the State Assembly, or just beginning to think about running for elective office, we are certain this training will provide women with the skills and inspiration needed to successfully run for office.

The program will take place in Denver, Colorado and begins on the evening of Wednesday, March 19th (6:00 pm – 9:00 pm) with a welcome reception and short session. Thursday, March 20th (8:30 am to 5:00 pm) will be filled with training on campaign planning, fundraising, message development, voter contact, direct mail and other important campaign issues.

The program, including materials and meals is free, however space is limited. Partial participation is not possible - you must commit to attending the full program in order to be allocated a seat at the training.

If you are interested in attending, please respond to this invitation as soon as possible by contacting Michelle Stephenson, Political Opportunity Program Assistant, at (202) 419-3073 or mstephenson@emilyslist.org. You will then get more information on the location.

We hope you or someone you know will be able to join us for this important training. If you have previously attended an EMILY's List training please contact me prior to registration at tbjork@emilyslist.org or (608) 257-2235.
