The Michigan People’s Campaign aims to ignite the power of communities and shift the balance of power, cultivate the leadership of those directly affected by injustice and build popular institutions for the future. It’s a multi-racial organization that works year-round to make sure that communities that have been left out of the political process, especially working-class communities and communities of color, are fully engaged and have motivation to vote. The organization also trains the next generation of candidates and campaign managers from communities that are most impacted by injustice.

The Carolina Federation works to bring people together to build a new political majority in North Carolina rooted in a culture of belonging and strong enough to win key elections and wield governing power. They seek to combine the best of southern tradition: deep base-building in our counties and neighborhoods, transformative leadership development, power-building issue campaigns, and large-scale voter organizing. They fight for a democracy for all, an economy for all and for a culture of belonging for all North Carolinians.

Their core programming operates in four areas: 1) base building and chapter member work, 2) training and leadership development, 3) movement politics organizing alongside candidates, and 4) large scale field organizing to reach voters.
