How Relational Organizing Works

Relational Organizing centers on training volunteers to reach out to friends and family and share personal stories about the issues that matter most to them.

After numerous cycles in the field, we know what works and have the results to prove it.

For Volunteers

Volunteers use our app to easily build their lists of friends & family, and reach out over the phone, text, Facebook Messenger, or WhatsApp.
Available in English and Spanish, web and mobile.

For Organizers

Organizers use our app to recruit volunteers, help those volunteers grow their lists of personal connections, and help them reach out on a regular basis.

For Organizing Directors

We provide the training and the resources to help organizations create realistic yet impactful relational organizing plans, train their staff to implement them, and provide support along the way.
