Skill Up: Art of the Ask

We hope you gained some helpful knowledge on how to get good at asking for people to do things with specific & tailored asks. It is important to hone this essential organizing skill in the work we do. Making clear, specific, and direct asks of volunteers and others can make our organizing more effective and energizing.
