Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Sign up for the email or text list on the CAIR Philadelphia website (pa.cair.com/mailing-list/)..

Check with the group before you show up. You need to sign up first.

What to expect

The events page lists many dated workshops, trainings, and community talks from 2020 to 2026, including know your rights sessions. The site does not list costs or registration steps for most of them, so the list signup is the clearest first step.

Tips for your first visit

  • Check the events page for the newest dates before you plan a visit.
  • The office is at 1501 Cherry Street, but the site does not list office hours, so call or email first.
  • Contact by email at info@philadelphia.cair.com, by voicemail at 267-515-6710, or by text at 215-253-3608.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: Anyone can sign up for the list on the site, and the events list shows many workshops and talks, but the site does not say how to register for each one..
