Where to start

JOIN DSA

By joining national DSA, you automatically become a voting member of Philly DSA. Pay what you can afford in dues or request a waiver. Philly DSA is entirely member-funded and relies on contributions from members like you to support our on-the-ground work and campaigns.

ATTEND OUR NEW MEMBER 101 SERIES

Each month, we host a new-member series comprising consecutive New Member 101, Socialism 101, and Organizing 101 sessions. Learn about our chapter and the exciting work we do at New Member 101, practice the fundamentals of building our movement in Organizing 101, and put it all together by discussing a socialist vision for the future at Socialism 101. DSA-curious and longtime members are welcome to join!
