"Resilience Training Empowers Election Workers Confronting Threats and Abuse"
US election workers, particularly women and people of color, continue to face threats and harassment following the 2020 election. Resilience training sessions, led by former elections clerk Tina Barton, aim to help officials manage the ongoing stress and fear they experience. These sessions provide mental wellness tools and encourage officials to reflect on their reasons for staying in their roles. Despite the challenges, Barton aims to remind election workers that they are not alone and to help them renew their passion for public service.
