In 2004 Democracy For America, in partnership with Latinos For America and 21st Century Democrats, embarked on an ambitious goal to train thousands of grassroots activists for the upcoming elections. Together these groups trained over 4000 people across the country. Formally launched in May of 2005, the DFA Training Academy builds on this experience and offers the grassroots a movement-oriented sustaining training program. This isn’t just about the next election, or what we can do for our country every two to four years. This is about building a movement to take our country back.
