Training or Assistance Offered for Candidate Forum Organizers

If your civic club or organization is interested in organizing a candidates forum for local or state races in your community, the League of Women Voters New Hampshire is happy to work with you. With years of forum experience in our background, we have prepared a manual to make it easy for any civic group to organize and to run a forum. We offer free training, or if you have some experience and justwant advice on a point or two, feel free to contact us. We can advise you on protocols. We may be able to supply a moderator, if requested. We are also able to train moderators and have a zoom training scheduled for January 32, 2024, via zoom. (Send us an email if you are interested in becoming a forum moderator.)  Email the League president via our Contact Us page.
