Our Mission

Our Mission . . .

. . . is to take part in this amazing process of rebuilding our democracy - of setting policies that make sense for real human beings; of changing laws and spending priorities, of streamlining parts of our government and expanding the parts that need expanding.  Most of all, we want to take part in remembering the enjoyment of talking with our neighbors and friends about what matters in the world, of helping to create community around issues that matter to us and to our neighbors.

We might help facilitate a planning session.  Or help your EBoard talk through an issue or think about how to develop leadership.  Or create a digital story about your organization for you to share with the world.
 

Rebuilding Democracy is a nonprofit consultancy which offers consulting, training, leadership development, technical and new-media assistance to Democratic and progressive organizations so they can develop and use a strong grassroots organizing capacity. 

RebuildingDemocracy.com is a website that offers tools and information to enable people to build their organizations and build community and influence our legislative process.
