Civic Nation: Empowering Local Communities to Maximize Impact and Change the World
Civic Nation is a non-profit organization that aims to empower local communities to push grassroots initiatives that will maximize impact and change the world. The organization was founded in 2015 with a mission to create a more just, equitable, and inclusive society by engaging people in civic action.
At Civic Nation, we believe that everyone has the power to make a difference. We work with individuals, organizations, and communities across the country to build coalitions around issues such as education, climate change, gun violence prevention, women's rights, and more. Our goal is to create lasting change by empowering people at the local level.
One of our core values is collaboration. We believe that working together is essential for creating meaningful change. That's why we partner with organizations like Rock the Vote, It's On Us, Reach Higher Initiative and others who share our vision for a better world.
Our approach is based on three key principles: education, engagement and action.
Education: We believe that informed citizens are essential for building strong communities. That's why we provide resources such as toolkits on how to organize events or campaigns around specific issues; webinars featuring experts on various topics; online courses on leadership development; etc.
Engagement: We know that people are more likely to take action when they feel connected to an issue or cause. That's why we use social media platforms like Twitter or Facebook as well as email newsletters or text messages campaigns so people can stay informed about what’s happening in their community or state regarding specific issues they care about.
Action: Finally but not least important - taking action! Civic Nation provides opportunities for individuals who want get involved in their community through volunteering programs (such as voter registration drives), organizing events (like rallies) or participating in advocacy campaigns (such as contacting elected officials).
We also have several initiatives under Civic Nation umbrella:
- Better Make Room - an initiative launched by former First Lady Michelle Obama aimed at inspiring young people across America towards higher education.
- All In Campus Democracy Challenge - this initiative encourages colleges & universities across America towards increasing student voting rates.
- When We All Vote - co-founded by Michelle Obama again along with other celebrities like Tom Hanks & Lin-Manuel Miranda aimed at increasing voter participation among all Americans regardless of political affiliation.
- United State of Women – this initiative focuses on gender equality & empowerment of women through various programs including mentorship opportunities & leadership training sessions
In conclusion,
Civic Nation believes in empowering local communities through education engagement & action so they can push grassroots initiatives which will maximize impact & bring positive changes into society while collaborating with other organizations sharing similar visions towards creating lasting impacts!
