Katal: Trainings and Coaching

Community Organizing Training & Coaching

We train people and organizations in the theory and practice of community organizing, campaign strategy, and leadership development. We also provide coaching on organizational development, staff management, and more.

Since 2016, we’ve trained and coached thousands of people in Connecticut, New York, and throughout the country. We’ve trained community organizations, advocacy and policy groups, networks and coalitions, foundations, faith groups, and more. We’ve provided formal and informal coaching to a wide-range of leaders. To learn more about our trainings or coaching opportunities, please reach out to us using the Contact Us form below!

Apprentice Organizing Program

Katal’s Apprentice Organizing program is an opportunity for those who want to learn the science and art of community organizing, but have little to no community organizing experience. As a job-training program, the Apprenticeship is a full-time paid position, lasts approximately 12 months, and prepares participants to secure employment as a community organizer. Apprentice organizers learn organizing by doing organizing — theory and practice. Apprentices are fully integrated members of the team, receive intensive coaching and support, and gain direct and transferable experience.

Katal Fellowship Program

In 2017, we launched the Katal Fellowship Program. Fellows are integrated as full-time staff members and receive training and coaching in organizing, advocacy, and organizational development. Fellows become part of an organizational home that connects them with local and national networks and other opportunities. Fellowships usually run 12 – 18 months. When fellowship opportunities become available, they are posted on our jobs page.
