District lines have enormous power. Redistricting can keep people with common interests, identity, language, and history bundled together so they can effectively advocate for themselves and make their voices heard in local affairs. Or it can gerrymander them and silence their voices. Where lines are drawn helps determine who wins elections and, in turn, which communities have representation and what laws or policies are passed. 

Join us for a one-hour webinar that shares the federal and state law that govern redistricting processes for city councils, county boards of supervisors, and school districts. We will also provide demonstrations of two simple tech tools meant to help community members and organizations draw maps for submission in local redistricting processes.
