About Us
Anchoring Democracy is a non-partisan 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to strengthening democracy by equipping individuals with the knowledge and tools to actively engage in the democratic process. Guided by four key pillars, our mission is to foster a democracy that is informed, resilient, and united:
• Non-partisan Civic Education: Accessible programs that empower citizens with the knowledge of democratic principles and processes.
• Non-partisan Campaign Workshops: Training ethical leaders to run impactful campaigns rooted in integrity.
• Political De-escalation Training: Teaching skills to bridge divides, foster understanding, and manage difficult conversations.
• Research: Addressing critical issues like misinformation, polarization, political psychology, and innovative solutions for voter engagement and government reforms.
We are reimagining how we do politics by creating spaces for informed, respectful, and engaged participation. Our democracy faces significant challenges, but with your support, we can ensure the anchor holds steady through any storm.
Together, we can counter the toxic forces of misinformation, polarization, and disengagement by empowering individuals to embrace what it truly means to be a citizen.
Join us. Together, we can make democracy stronger.
