Describe the Organization's Program Activity:

Part 3 - Line 4a

CONTENT CREATION AND PROMOTION: RED WINE & BLUE USES CONTENT TO ENGAGE, EMPOWER, AND ORGANIZE SUBURBAN WOMEN. WE PRODUCE A PODCAST, VIDEOS, GRAPHICS, LIVE EVENTS, AND MORE THAT DRAW IN WOMEN WHO MAY NOT CONSIDER THEMSELVES POLITICAL. OUR CONTENT MEETS WOMEN WHERE THEY ARE AND MAKES THEM FEEL SEEN, HEARD, AND INSPIRED. TO INCREASE THE VIRAL NATURE OF OUR CONTENT, WE MAKE IT FUN, HEARTFELT, AND HUMOROUS SO THEY FEEL SAFE AND PROUD TO SHARE IT WITH THEIR NETWORKS. COMMUNITY-BUILDING AND FRIEND-TO-FRIEND ORGANIZING: MANY WOMEN FEEL LIKE POLITICAL OUTSIDERS, BUT MOST ARE TRUSTED COMMUNITY INSIDERS, WITH EXTENSIVE NETWORKS BRIDGING MANY DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES AND INTERESTS. WE CONNECT WOMEN TO EACH OTHER THROUGH OUR ONLINE AND IN-PERSON TRAINING AND EVENTS. RED WINE & BLUE MEMBERS, IN TURN, SHARE OUR CONTENT AND RESOURCES ACROSS THEIR NETWORKS AND BECOME TRUSTED MESSENGERS WHO INCREASE RED WINE & BUES REACH AND GENERATE ADDITIONAL NEW MEMBERS WHO WANT TO GET INVOLVED. RESEARCH CONFIRMS THAT FRIEND-TO-FRIEND COMMUNICATION IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO SPREAD A MESSAGE, BUT ITS ALSO PERCEIVED TO BE THE MOST SOCIALLY RISKY. RED WINE & BLUE HELPS WOMEN BUILD THE CONFIDENCE AND CIVIC MUSCLE TO TAP THESE RELATIONAL NETWORKS THROUGH NON-TRADITIONAL CONTENT AND TRAINING THAT HELP THEM REALIZE THEIR POWER TO INFLUENCE THE PEOPLE THEY KNOW. LOOK AHEAD: IN 2022 AND 2023, RED WINE & BLUE WILL EXPAND ITS PRESENCE NATIONALLY AND IN OUR FOCUS STATES. WE WILL CHANNEL THE POWER OF DIVERSE, LOCAL SUBURBAN WOMEN WHO BELIEVE IN PUBLIC EDUCATION AND OUR DEMOCRACY TO FIGHT FEAR, DISINFORMATION, AND EXTREMISM; AND PROTECT OUR RIGHTS AND OUR FREEDOMS, AND OUR DEMOCRACY.
