Looking Ahead and Moving Forward St Cloud
Posted November 13, 2018
TakeAction is committed to being a multi-generational, multi-racial and statewide organization. To do that we believe we must invest in St Cloud and stick around to keep building power in Central Minnesota after the elections. After a very exciting and successful election season, we think it’s important to come together to break bread, learn about ways we can be powerful together and dream about what is next.
We invite out members to join us in St Cloud to debrief the elections, hear some empowering stories of people taking on leadership and imagine next steps that TakeAction members are willing to take to build a better, brighter and more welcoming community here in Central Minnesota.
Childcare and transportation are available by request.

We will be meeting in the Peace United Church Community room. This space is open and accessible to all people of different backgrounds, faiths, and communities. We are thankful that they are letting us use their space.… Continue reading »

Posted July 3, 2018
When I was growing up, politics was never very present in my life. My parents voted, but no one volunteered. No one I knew worked in politics, or even talked much about the news.

Defining what makes a candidate a true progressive
Posted November 4, 2017

The silly season has arrived.” Read more… Continue reading »
