SCSJ is partnering with community organizations in several states across the South to offer in-depth training sessions to educate community organizers on the redistricting process and potential voting rights violations following the 2020 census. Community Redistricting Organizations Working for Democracy (CROWD) Academies will equip individuals and organizations with tools to monitor and engage with redistricting processes at every level of government, spot warning signs, and take action if decisions are likely to infringe on the right to an equal opportunity to participate in elections.

Below, read our one-pager, “Redistricting Overview,” view our CROWD Academy Booklet, download our state-specific chapters, and read and hear about CROWD Academy participants’ experience with the training.
