WE ALSO WORK WITH ARTISTS AND COMMUNITIES OF CREATIVES, CREATING VISUALS AND IMAGES THAT CELEBRATE THE CULTURAL VALUE OF OUR COMMUNITIES. IN 2020, OUR STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS AND NARRATIVE CAPACITY BUILDING PROJECT TRAINED AND DEVELOPED 10 FELLOWS FOCUSED ON NARRATIVE CHANGE AND STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS. FOR 15 MONTHS, FELLOWS WERE PLACED WITH POWER CALIFORNIA ALLIANCE PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS ACROSS THE STATE TO BUILD THEIR COMMUNICATIONS AND NARRATIVE CAPACITY. THE 13 FELLOWS IN OUR INAUGURAL COHORT LED CIVIC ENGAGEMENT CAMPAIGNS STATEWIDE, COLLECTIVELY CONTACTING OVER 100,000 VOTERS. FIELD CAMPAIGNS: In 2020, we leveraged our digital infrastructure and expertise to help get-out-the-count for the Census and ran the largest voter outreach program in the State of California with 21 partner organizations helping to reach more than 150,000 people. Power California has become a leader at the Million Voters Project (MVP) table. MVP is an alliance of 7 community-driven state and regional networks working to strengthen and expand democracy. Our Regional Field Leads are often consulted for their expertise in coordinating large-scale programs. Training decks that Power California helped produce were adopted MVP-wide this year along with our Power Hour (volunteer onboarding orientation) and Power Academy (multi-day, campaign training).We implemented a weekly virtual Power Hour to orient new volunteers and successfully mobilized 1,489 volunteers to conduct peer-to-peer conversations via virtual phone banks, SMS Text and Relational Organizing applications. Last year, in partnership with the Million Voters Project, we were able to turn out 124,996 young voters and saw a 12% increase from 59% to 71% and 60% to 72% among 18-24 year-old voters and 25-34 year-old voters, respectively. ORGANIZING/99ROOTZ PROGRAMS: WE WORK WITH STUDENTS AND YOUTH ORGANIZING GROUPS TO STRENGTHEN THEIR ORGANIZING MUSCLE, YOUTH ENGAGEMENT, AND CULTURAL STRATEGY TO BUILD A SUSTAINED VOTING BASE WITH POWER TO MOBILIZE YOUNG VOTERS ACROSS CALIFORNIA. WE FACILITATE POWER CALIFORNIA ALLIANCE PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS ACROSS THE STATE TO MOBILIZE 200,000 YOUNG VOTERS ANNUALLY, MAXIMIZING THE IMPACT AND EFFECTIVENESS OF OUR COMBINED EFFORTS TO ENGAGE AND MOBILIZE YOUNG VOTERS. WE BUILT YOUTH ORGANIZING CAPACITY IN REGIONS OF LOS ANGELES AND THE CENTRAL VALLEY, IN ORDER TO STRENGTHEN REGIONAL MUSCLE AND INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDED TO EXPAND CIVIC POWER FOR YOUNG PEOPLE IN AREAS
