That’s why we’re inspired by the growing interest in civic assemblies—like the recent civic assembly in Culver City, spotlighted by LAist.

This community-led process brings everyday residents together—not politicians, but people—to wrestle with tough issues!

By increasing community resilience and fortifying civic capacity, communities across the country will be better equipped to solve their biggest challenges and reduce the risk of political violence and division.

This is how we strengthen our democracy and our communities: one conversation, one shared moment, one step at a time. 💗

We are moved by this piece that highlights how so many of us crave connection across lines of difference — racial, political, economic, and more — but often lack the opportunities or spaces to do so. It’s a reminder that bridging divides isn’t a partisan issue; it’s a human one.

👏🏽 Kudos to the researchers, community partners, and local leaders who made this possible. Let’s keep building this future—block by block, town by town.

We’re especially inspired by how this citizens assembly integrated equity into its design from the start. As we work to build trusted, local structures for collective problem-solving, examples like this remind us what’s possible when communities lead the way.

Better Together came together as the result of a diverse group of pro-democracy advocates, supported by the Mediators’ Foundation. Workshop how to address the needs of local, grassroots initiatives and unite these efforts with the sprawling national pro-democracy networks that dominate the sector.
