<p>You may have noticed that Socializing for Justice is not an issue-based organization. We host events that draw progressives of all stripes that are like-minded but not necessarily like-identified. Our philosophy focuses on creating social spaces that allow for the possibility of cross-issue connections, discussion spaces that challenge our myopic view of the world and now we're introducing skillshares which will support all of us desiring to make a difference in the world.</p>
<p>We're very excited that Mark McCurdy, The Nonprofit Career Coach, has agreed to facilitate this training. Below is the workshop description from his website: <a href="http://www.thenonprofitcareercoach.org/" target="_blank">www.thenonprofitcareercoach.org</a>. </p>
<p><b>Volunteer to accelerate your career</b></p>
