This year's presidential campaign has been an incredible training ground
for grassroots organizers. For those who feel inspired to continue being
a part of a grassroots movement to change the country, PICO National
Network is offering former campaign staff the opportunity to explore a
career as a professional community organizer.

Electing politicians who represent our views is only half of the battle.
The other half is building the grassroots political will for change and
working to hold elected officials accountable to the needs of their
constituents. This is what PICO organizers do.
Please forward this email to your contacts in the campaigns who have
promise as community organizers. To help orient potential organizers to
PICO and learn more about current and upcoming job opportunities within
the network, PICO is hosting a National Recruitment Event in Denver,
Colorado from December 2-4. For those invited to attend the event, PICO
will cover airfare, hotel, and meals. To learn more and to apply to the
Recruitment Event, visit www.actualresponsibilities.org.
Please send all questions to jobs at piconetwork.org.
Sincerely,
Rev. Michael-Ray Mathews
Director of Outreach and Recruitment
