Disclaimers
While this database contains more than 500 entities, it is not a complete list of the thousands of organizations doing impactful work. Organizations are invited to fill out this Card Creation Form to be added to the CaPA Connector.Â
Most of the CaPA Connector data is self-reported by the organizations and CaPA has not completed a 3rd party assessment of accuracy.
CaPA evaluates where programs are fielded within a State by using congressional district boundaries. An org delivering engagement actions within the boundaries of a congressional district does not necessarily mean that group is engaging in a congressional district race.
Alaska Public Interest Research Group (AKPIRG) is a nonprofit founded in 1974 that is committed to connecting Alaskans to reliable information about public interest issues. Unlike most PIRGs, AKPIRG has no ties to university or student PIRG organizations, or to the national PIRG system. Designed to represent the interests of consumers, AKPIRG provides a vehicle for promoting the concerns of under-represented Alaskans into the mainstream of public policy making. We have five intersecting and often-related issue areas that we work on: energy, broadband, economic justice, language access, and good government.

We are working in Oregon's 5th and 6th to motivate rural young voters. 50% of our people under 26 have never voted, and 25% have voted once. These voters need to know they can make a difference rather than letting their parents and grandparents make decisions for them.
The purposes of the Organization are to:
i. Educate rural voters on issues that matter most to them,
ii. Engage with voters to encourage voting participation,
iii. Hold legislators accountable for their actions,
iv. Embrace rational, civic-minded rural values by modeling inclusion, respect, and fairness in all of our actions
v. Empower forward-thinking candidates to run for and hold elected office in rural Oregon.
