Community Organizing Toolkit

The Toolkit is a set of resources that supports face-to-face training for residents and community leaders. The computer-based component (the “Organizing Game”) is used to introduce concepts, prompt discussion, and allow residents to practice skills in a safe, non-threatening environment. The initial focus of the Toolkit is teaching Doorknocking, an organizing technique that’s particularly effective in moving issues within a local community.

The Toolkit is the result of a partnership:
– CompassPoint Nonprofit Services is the overall project manager and fiscal agent.
– Kinection is designing and developing the Organizing Game.
– The Center for Third World Organizing is providing organizing content and expertise.
– The Waitt Family Foundation, the Marguerite Casey Foundation, and the Community Technology Foundation have provided funds for the project.
