Organizations | Clean and Prosperous America

The Center for Common Ground is non-partisan, Black and women-led voting rights organization founded in 2018. We work in voter suppression states where more than 20% of voters are voters of color – Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Texas. Collaborating with local partners, we strive to mobilize ALL voters of color, both those who consistently participate in elections and those who have yet to exercise their right to vote.

As a Virginia based organization we are laser focused on Virginia elections. We will be sending postcards, making phone calls, canvassing and texting. Because so many people in our community are hurt first and worst by the current Administration plans we are now providing mutual aid in most of our Democracy Centers. Additionally, we are building an Integrated Election Management Platform which will revolutionize Field Management

Our campaign aims to engage super voters, registered voters, and especially irregular or low propensity voters

Center for Common Ground works to educate and empower voters of color in voter suppression states. We work in voter suppression states where more than 20% of voters are voters of color – Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Texas. Our work includes community surveys to help communities find their voice, community canvassing, candidate forums, making phone calls and teaching advocacy. Collaborating with local partners, we strive to mobilize ALL voters of color, both those who consistently participate in elections and those who have yet to exercise their right to vote.

Citizens' Climate Education (c3)

Update this information

Citizens' Climate Education and Citizens' Climate work together to advance climate action in the U.S. Congress. We train and empower our grassroots network of 360 active chapter and 62 national action teams to build political will through local organizing, media engagement, and direct lobbying. During election years, we mobilize volunteers to engage candidates on climate change and boost voter turnout.

In 2025, Citizens' Climate Education is focused on training our grassroots network to defend hard-won climate victories in the U.S. Congress, such as the clean energy tax credits passed in the Inflation Reduction Act. We are also taking advantage of opportunities to make forward progress in the current political climate. These opportunities include climate-smart forestry, clean energy deployment, and building electrification.

JustME for JustUS (c3)

Update this information

JustME for JustUS unites rural youth (ages 15-30) across all political backgrounds to advocate for their futures. Our Rural Youth Organizers lead year-round climate justice and civic engagement projects, plus nonpartisan vote work in election years, hosting impactful community events and engagement opportunities that foster youth leadership and ensure the long-term sustainability of our communities. By ensuring that electoral organizing and issue organizing work in synergy, we translate vibrant organizing into civic engagement to strengthen our rural communities and to create pathways for those most impacted by climate change to lead solutions.

Our 2025 goals include: Engage 1000 youth in JMJU workshops, conversations, and trainings; Provide stipends to 150 youth for their time spent organizing; 40 Rural Youth Organizer-led projects: workshops, events, trainings; Host 10 conversations geared toward depolarizing climate issues and bringing young people together across political divides.

Our organizers use relational organizing in their communities to engage other youth (ages 15-30) in vote work, including text banking, voter education, nonpartisan youth-led candidate forums, voter registration at rural schools, a social pressure rural youth voter social media campaign, and relational organizing and voter turnout campaigns.

JustME for JustUS empowers rural Maine's frontline climate justice communities by shifting power and opportunities directly to under-resourced youth (ages 15-30) so they can advocate for their futures. Our Rural Youth Organizers lead year-round climate justice projects and nonpartisan vote work in even election years, hosting impactful and accessible community events and engagement opportunities that foster youth leadership and ensure the long-term sustainability of our communities.
