Voto Latino is a grassroots political organization focused on educating and empowering a new generation of Latinx voters, as well as creating a more robust and inclusive democracy. Through innovative digital campaigns, culturally relevant programs and authentic voices, we shepherd the Latinx community towards full realization of its political power. Our civic engagement goes beyond just the voting booth and involves mobilization around multiple issues including the census and immigration reform.
The IEA works to promote real coexistence and human peace in the Holy Land and the Middle East through interactive inter-religious dialogue. We believe that, rather than being the cause of the problem; religion can and should be a source of solution for conflicts in the region and beyond. We do not believe in blending all traditions into one undifferentiated group, but in providing a table where all can come and sit in safety and ease, while being fully who they are in their respective religions
State Voices is committed to creating a fair and just society by advancing racial equity and working to make our democracy more accessible, inclusive, and representative. The State Voices Affiliated Network is a nonpartisan infrastructure of permanent state-based coalitions called “State Tables,” advocates, and organizers fighting for a healthy democracy and political power which includes Black, Indigenous, Latinx, AAPI people, and all people of color (BIPOC). The work we do is guided by a simple mission: using data and technology, people-powered campaigns, and coalitions to collectively build a multiracial democracy that allows everyone to thrive and live in their full dignity.
Our mission is to break the generational cycle of poverty for Latino immigrants and their families by lifting barriers to their success. We believe that everyone has the right to achieve their dreams. Every day, we partner with Latino immigrants and their families to best meet their needs and support their goals — from putting food on the table, to becoming U.S. citizens, to learning English, to graduating from college to gaining skills that lead to quality jobs with career-path employment opportunities. In parallel to our high-impact direct services, we address the root causes of inequity through bold, place-based initiatives. Together, we’re building a Marin where everyone can live, learn, work, and succeed.
