Shoring Up Civic Engagement Technology for 2022 and Beyond
Monday April 11, 2022 ~ 12 pm PT / 3pm ET, Online
ABOUT THE BRIEFING
This event will equip attendees with key guidelines for investing in and supporting technology-related projects.
We’ll cover:
Best practices for protecting teams and tools from digital security threats;
The most important questions to ask when considering investing in new tech solutions or supporting a team who is buying, building or upgrading their technology;
How to make our tools and systems more accessible and user-friendly — and why this matters so much.
ABOUT TRESTLE
Trestle Collaborative is creating a future where technology is never a liability for social change organizers, and instead, can amplify people-powered movements for equity and justice.
Trestle is a non-profit team of expert engineers, designers, and product managers who partner with leading movement and civic engagement groups. Trestle exists to ensure their technology infrastructure is secure, stable, and user-friendly for the millions of organizers, community members, and volunteers that depend upon it.
Since our work began in 2019, Trestle has mobilized a diverse community of 70+ senior technologists to protect, secure and bolster the work of 60+ critical social change groups. We have supported organizations leading on the front lines — such as the Sunrise Movement, Peoples’ Action, the Lawyers’ Committee on Civil and Human Rights, The Sierra Club, Equis Labs — as well as the technology groups fueling 21st century organizing — including The Movement Cooperative, Mobilize America, Vote.org, and BallotReady.
