Sharing a couple photos from our time with 10 amazing rural leaders this past weekend. There is so much hope in this country because of powerhouses like these who are organizing with authenticity and care in rural communities across the country.
Don't forget to apply by May 1!!! Reach out with any questions at all--we love chatting about our program and if it's a good fit for you: https://t.co/SGY2YNwfFN
What if you had a community of rural leaders across the country in your corner? That's exactly what Dirtroad Cohorts are built for. Four months of skills training, mentorship, and connection - for candidates and organizers. Deadline to apply is May 1st: https://t.co/9wGBHO5pjw

We wanted to share more photos of our time in-person with--not one but--TWO Cohorts a couple weeks ago. Our Winter 2025 Cohort wrapped up their time together, and our March 2026 Cohort began their Dirtroad journey in-person.
We're in awe of these rural leaders!
Our March-June Cohort went deep, spending the better part of two days exploring personal stories together. The thoughtfulness, vulnerability, and collaborative listening that folks brought to the space was incredible. Leaving with all the resolve for the months ahead!
Feedback is such a huge part of the Dirtroad culture, and we are so grateful for the alums that are willing to share their experience with you. Thank you, Katy!π
@runforsomething@DirtroadOrg Folks are intro'ing themselves in the chat & sharing why they're on the call. My favorite answer so far: "Iβm here because it seems like the only reasonable thing for a sane person to do if they want things to change."
We had nearly 200 people sign up for tonight's @runforsomething & @DirtroadOrg rural leadership recruitment call -- we're all-in to help people run in rural communities, even & especially when it's hard.
Our cohorts are all about reflecting and sharing experiences amongst folks facing similar challenges, specific skills trainings, 1:1 mentorship, and building community to support rural organizing.
We are thrilled to announce our partnership with @runforsomething to recruit young rural leaders to run for office.
Join our Kickoff Call on Tuesday February 3rd at 7pm ET to learn more + get a peak into the RFS/Dirtroad Cohort.
