A STRONGER DEMOCRACY
A CLEAN ENERGY ECONOMY
Building the capacity to implement a clean energy transition that delivers immediate benefits for working people
We are a high-touch strategy and technical assistance provider with expertise in organizing, research, stakeholder facilitation, policy development, project implementation, and fundraising.
We strengthen collaboration between grassroots organizations, labor unions, and local governments to implement and scale ambitious policies that deliver real benefits for working people: lower energy bills, improved public health, and good union jobs.
We work with partners to incubate and refine policy models at the municipal level and then replicate these efforts within states and nationwide.
We serve as a resource hub by conducting research, facilitating connections, synthesizing best practices, supporting storytelling, and organizing learning opportunities to support effective implementation.
