Meet the Movement Infrastructure Cohort!

One of the most effective actions we can take to save democracy is to strengthen the progressive ecosystems that are needed now more than ever. With that in mind, we assembled the Movement Infrastructure Cohort, the latest wave of our Accelerator program participants. These organizations do critical work to connect people, causes, and resources so that we can all pull in the same direction. Learn more about our newest program members below.
