Congratulations on running for County Committee! Whether or not you made it all the way through the process this cycle, the Rep Your Block team believes that anyone who steps forward wanting to be a part of the ground floor of the Democratic Party here in Brooklyn deserves to be welcomed into the fold.
Even though the County Committee cycle is every two years, there are elections every year, and there are opportunities to connect with neighbors every day. Rep Your Block believes in the strength of grassroots organizing, and we think the best way to feel empowered in making a difference is at the local level.
That's why we've put together this guide to try to collect the many opportunities for local organizing here in Brooklyn.
It is not fully exhaustive, and we hope it will be a living document that can incorporate input from many of you as you join organizations and hear about opportunities that you think should be included. Please email us with any recommended additions. We also encourage your to join us on Brooklyn County Committee Slack for updates about organizing opportunities, events, and the County Committee election and meeting cycle. All are welcome, even if you’re not an official County Committee member!
