Who we are

We are a non-partisan network of civic associations, faith-based organizations and nonprofits that come together to effect change on a larger scale than we could alone. We identify shared issues affecting our communities (such as housing insecurity, mental health issues and closing the technology divide). We build long-term relationships across lines that often divide us.  We help regular people have a seat at the decision-making tables of Silicon Valley.

We are a "sponsoring committee" because we are in the early stages of building an organization. That said, we are proud of the work we have done so far.

We are affiliated with the Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF), the nation’s largest and longest-standing leadership development and organizing network. The IAF believes that a healthy democracy requires the active participation of ordinary people.
