With the 2024 election behind us, the hot takes keep rolling in—what we did right, what we missed, and what’s next. But let’s be real: most are from armchair commentators - not the folks who were there - on the ground. RootsCamp is the space for the professionals who actually do the work—the strategists, organizers, and decision-makers powering progress and building stronger movements together.
🌟 Are You One of the Professionals Who Powered Progress in 2024?
Or do you know someone critical to our victories? If you were in the trenches—or know someone who was—this is the invitation to join a community dedicated to learning from each other and continuing to drive progress.
RootsCamp is where the people who shaped the 2024 election come together to:
Share real stories of what worked, what didn’t, and what’s next.
Learn from peers who wrote the budgets, knocked on doors, created content, and built the tools that drove our victories.
Strategize for the battles ahead in 2025 and beyond.
This year’s theme, Powering Progress and People: Building Stronger Movements Together, reflects our mission to honor the professionals who made change happen and to keep pushing forward.
