After Action 2024: A Summary
After Action 2024 was an online workshop designed specifically for democratic and progressive campaign staff following the 2024 election. On the heels of an incredibly difficult election cycle that left most of us totally burned out, this 5-week workshop provided a structured space for participants to pause, reflect on their work, reconnect with themselves and their communities, and restore back to baseline. For everyone from the first-time staffer to the seasoned campaign professional, After Action 2024 created a home base for reflection, restoration, and community after the election.
Although designed for the post-election period, the science-backed, practical lessons included here are helpful for anytime of the year. Each of the themes have curated lessons from people within our field, including written and video content. Whether you need to Reset, Recalibrate, Reconnect, Restore, or Rejuvenate, the After Action 2024 site has tools to support you. All of the live Zoom sessions can be found at the Zoom Hub, and the Resources page is full of great content to explore further. Feel free to dive into it all! We’re happy you’re here and encourage you to take some time to give a little love and support to the most important asset of all: YOU.
