Leadership Academy: Redistricting Fellowship
California Community Redistricting Leaders Program: Overview
Application cycle now closed for 2011 program.
The leadership fellowship was specifically created to:
- Bring forth dynamic grassroots leaders that are able to organize regional communities around redistricting; and
- Empower these community leaders to tackle other important issues facing their communities through trainings and exposure to Greenlining’s advocacy “toolbox.”
Each Leadership Fellow will work with Greenlining’s Director of Innovation as well as the Claiming Our Democracy Fellow to organize local communities of color throughout California to play an active role in the drawing of district maps by the Citizens Redistricting Commission.
Leaders will work in their communities to
- Promote a unified and multi-ethnic approach to redistricting;
- Provide technical assistance to local community members to draw their own maps;
- Outreach to local media outlets to provide bring increased media attention to redistricting;
- Help prepare community members to testify at meetings held by the Citizens Redistricting Commission before maps are drawn; and
- Help provide public comment on maps drawn the by redistricting commission
