This past year, MomsRising piloted a national leadership development program both for moms who were already community leaders – and also for those who wanted to build their leadership skills. Moms in the program held postcard parties, organized meet-ups, participated in MomsVote text banking and on-the-ground voter engagement activities, delivered letters supporting gun safety laws to their lawmakers, and much more! The program was so successful that we will be launching it again in 2023!
*This is a national network of SUPER MOMS! Interested? Apply now at https://action.momsrising.org/survey/2023BeaconsFellowship!
The volunteer Beacons of Hope Community Leaders Fellowship program will develop your leadership as you mobilize your local community to take action. The program will build power as participants form a national network of Super Moms who coordinate with and support each other to directly influence policy making.

MomsRising is looking for Super Mom volunteer leaders to help shorten the distance between moms’ voices on the ground and Washington, DC – Super Moms looking to unleash their organizing and leadership skills to create change. Are you interested?
Volunteer Program details:
- Each volunteer New Beacon Community Leader (or “Hub Leader”) will build and lead her own hub of volunteers, drawing from personal networks of family, neighbors, and friends, and from MomsRising members near them, with MomsRising backing them up every step of the way.
- Each volunteer New Beacon Community Leader will undertake one or more in-person or online events or actions every two months from a list of suggested activities or in consultation with MomsRising. Examples of organizing activities include holding postcard writing parties, organizing constituent meetings with the local offices of members of Congress, tabling at a farmer’s market, and more.
- Each volunteer New Beacon Community Leader will undergo a program orientation for education and networking, as well as participate in monthly program meetings for additional training and community building.
- In this 10-month program, each volunteer New Beacon Community Leader will be offered a small advance volunteer reimbursement stipend. Each leader will also receive an advocacy toolkit with useful and fun items to help them build their Hubs, build the MomsRising movement, and build the grassroots power of moms and families.
We’ll be reviewing applications, including scheduling follow-up interviews, over the next few weeks, with acceptances decided by late January.
Please feel free to forward this email to other Super Moms who you think would be strong candidates for this program.
Thank you for your interest, and for all you already do with MomsRising!
