Building Your Base While You're Getting Ready to Run

Thinking about running for office in the next few years?  Taking the leap from involved community member to candidate takes careful planning, not to mention no small amount of soul-searching.  Many of our trainings focus on what candidates need to do once they decide to run, and we make an assumption that these candidates have done the necessary "pre-work" to set themselves up to run winning, empowering campaigns.

But what DO you do in the months and years that lead up to a run for office?  How can you set yourself up well to have a broad base to turn to when you announce your candidacy?  This organizing tool looks at how to build your base as you get ready to run.
