CWA Next Generation is Fired Up and Ready to Go in District 7!

Last week, CWA's Next Generation program and District 7 held a Next Gen Activist Training in Denver. Twenty-one participants from nine different states spent two days exploring working-class struggles and how to fight back against the agenda of the 1%. Participants honed their political and organizing skills and developed plans to get fellow young members involved in their states with support from CWA Local and District mentors. They'll immediately get to work on organizing and putting pressure on Congress to pass the PRO Act to build worker power.

"This group of young union activists gives me tremendous hope for our future as a movement," said Carissa Hahn, CWA District 7 Next Gen Lead Activist and lead trainer. "With the skills and experience that our trainers brought to the table, and the ongoing support of our mentors, we are building a formidable cadre of young organizers to strengthen our movement. We are fired up and ready to go!"
