Kansans, working together, can build a state full of thriving, inclusive, and just communities. Local office holders - including city and county council members, school boards, and mayors have a critical role to play in realizing this vision.
We're working to engage more citizens and activate them to become advocates within their communities. We're hosting community meetings throughout Southeast Kansas and organizing around issues such as food and housing insecurity, transportation, and incarceration.
