WHY WE'RE HERE

History shows us that when just 3.5% of people come together with purpose and persistence, real change is possible.

Together, we can protect democracy and build a better future in these ways:

Advocacy

We support everyday people in speaking out and organizing for laws and leaders that reflect our shared values—fairness, equity, and justice for all.

Community Actions and Events

From peaceful standouts to community conversations, we bring people together to raise awareness, share stories, and make our voices heard.

Learning and Support

We offer opportunities for training in nonviolent action and grassroots organizing, and we nurture a strong, supportive network where people can find encouragement, inspiration, and connection.

Sally Davis - My union involvement with AFSCME Local 1776, beginning in the early 90's connected me to the Stonewall Center at UMASS, where I was involved with their art work, and workshops concerning basic home repair. My degree was in plant and soil science.  Working with plant materials led to selling plants at the Farmers Market as a fund raiser. I am a member of the Indivisible North Quabbin Community Outreach and Self-Sufficiency working group.
