Democracy Centers provide permanent, peer-to-peer, community-based voter services, education, dialogue and opportunity for participation within the political process at the local, state and federal levels.

Center for Common Ground provides needed infrastructure, training and digital tools to empower communities during times of accelerated change and challenge. Voting services must be available year-round every year and not just in federal election years a few weeks prior to an election to increase participation.

Each Democracy Center is as unique as the community it serves. Our locations include African American History Museums, churches, fraternity houses and community centers.

The elimination of civic education has created a lack of knowledge about our governmental system among the general public. Citizens need a place to gather, learn about national, state and local policy/politics so they can make educated decisions about their leaders and how to make change on every level.

Our goal is to open 40 Democracy Centers in the next 12 months. Each Democracy Center will have 2 laptop computers, 3 to 5 tablets and a projector.
