No Kings Akron Safety Prep Workshop
2025-10-15 18:00 - 19:30 (America/New_York) | Stewart’s Caring Place, 3501 Ridge Park Drive, Fairlawn, OH, 44333, United States
Indivisible Akron Safety & Peace Marshal Training
Open to Anyone Who Wants to Learn About and Practice Event Safety
Join Indivisible Akron for a hands-on safety training workshop in advance of our Oct. 18 No Kings day of visibility. While we expect our free speech event to be peaceful, powerful, and uneventful (in terms of conflict), it’s always good to prepare.
Indivisible Akron’s leaders went through this training over the summer in Washington D.C., and they’ll take you through the exercises. Dress comfortably.
Who should attend this training? Anyone who’s interested in de-escalating conflicts, dealing with counter-protestors and helping to ensure our events are safe and peaceful. You do not ** need to be a peace marshal to attend this meeting.

Indivisible Akron Monthly Meetup (January 2026)
2026-01-12 18:00 - 19:30 | First Congregational Church of Akron, 292 E. Market Street, Akron, OH, 44308, United States
About This Event
Indivisible Akron meets on the second Monday of every month.
Heads up, friends — this is the part where you really need to pay attention. We’re in a new location (yes, NEW, so don’t show up at the old spot and wonder why the lights are off).
📍 First Congregational Church of Akron 292 E. Market Street, Akron, OH 44308
This Month’s Speakers
Jennifer Boswell (Moms Demand Action & Indivisible Akron). She’ll break down the push to fill those mysterious, often-ignored PC seats in 2026. Think of them as the “hidden gears” of local politics — small but mighty. If you’ve ever wondered how politics actually works at the ground level, this is your chance to find out.
Phill Wiland (Summit County Progressive Dems). He’ll share what SCPD is all about, how it operates, and how we can work together to make change happen.
Why You Should Come
If “get more politically involved” or “finally figure out local politics” made it onto your 2026 resolutions list, this meeting is basically tailor-made for you. And if you don’t do resolutions… well, maybe this is the year to break that streak.
Parking & Directions The church sits on the south side of East Market Street, between College and Union Streets. Parking lots are along Union Street. (Translation: don’t circle Market Street endlessly — the lots are tucked behind the church.)
