Gather Round | Post-Midterms Huddle: Building Local & State Power
November 19, 2026 @ 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm PST
The Gather Round Monthly Membership Calls, held on the 3rd Thursday of every month at 1 pm PST / 4 pm EST, serve as a regular “drop in” space for SAFSF members. These calls are focused on connection and continuing dialogue on topics explored in virtual learning events and other programs hosted by SAFSF during the month.
Post-Midterms Huddle: Building Local & State Power
The midterm results are in, and funders are already asking what they mean for the work ahead. Join fellow SAFSF members for an informal huddle to share initial reactions and hear how different funders are reading the moment.
Together, we will discuss how local and state wins build momentum and why they’re often one of the surest paths to federal reform. We will hear from SAFSF member Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) about work they have funded for state and local wins that build toward national change. Then, open the floor to others to share their post-midterm reflections and the opportunities and challenges they see ahead.
Bring your questions, your read on the results, and your ideas for how funders can work together in the months ahead.
This event is designed for SAFSF members. Registering below will automatically register you for Gather Round each month.
