Come join activists of all age levels, experience and backgrounds for the RAN/RYSE/SEAC gathering and training!

The gathering will be taking place in Chicago, and we encourage activists in our networks from around the country to join us. We envision a diverse, open-minded, inspirational space where our network can build, grow and
learn. There will be organizing and strategy training, political education, a toxic tour of Chicago, time to connect and have fun, and a chance to create the RAN/RYSE/SEAC network we want to see. And -- of course -- there will be a chance to apply everything we've learned at an exciting, creative direct action!

This opportunity is both for people who are currently
part of our network and for those interested in joining us and gaining valuable skills and information for future collaboration and movement-building. People with all levels of activism experience (including no experience!) are welcome and encouraged to apply.

If you are applying for a travel scholarship, the deadline is August 1.

Otherwise, the deadline for applications is August 8.
