WeRun National Campaign Training Institute - Rise To Leadership

If you've ever wanted to learn more about running for office or working on a campaign, this is the training to launch your political career!

With more than 60 million Latinos in the United States, our communities continue to be disproportionately underrepresented in federal, state, and local governments. In 2019, we created WeRun to ensure our communities are actively prepared to close this political leadership gap, see themselves in elected positions of leadership, and stay politically engaged. At WeRun we empower, provide the tools, and help young Latinos and communities of color launch their political careers.

The Institute's vision is to increase access for Latinos in the political space through educational training and a robust hands-on curriculum. The institute invests in programs to harness the political power of young Latinos and equip them with advanced opportunities for political leadership.

This year’s training will feature prominent leaders, hands-on workshops and an interactive luncheon conversation with Latino elected officials. Lastly, the breakdown of activities include the ABC’s of a political campaign, filing, fundraising, building a field plan, getting endorsements and a communications training.
