What We Do
Campaign for Community Values
The Campaign
for Community Values unites all of the Center’s grassroots organizational
partners along with national allies to transform the disastrous “go it alone”
politics of our recent past toward policies that reflect our connectedness, our
diversity, our mutual responsibility for one another and all of our inherent
value and worth. Comprised of more than
300 grassroots organizations across the country, the Campaign for Community
Values is changing the nature of politics and building an America that works
for all of us. MORE >>
