The Mission of The People

The mission of The People is to bring Americans together to engage in civil discourse, establish and carry out nonpartisan governmental reforms. By doing so, we will live in a truly representative democracy. By activating all citizens and bringing our country together, one collective voice will be established and the average person can be heard. We will help individuals organize around common causes, rounding out strengths and weaknesses, and connecting them with others to accelerate their efforts. This will help us to facilitate productive dialogue between those with variation in beliefs and promote action to address needed governmental reforms.

This mission employs four different strategies

1. FIND COMMON PURPOSE
   With everyone in the organization playing a role, The People will build bonds and bridge divides.
2. REDISCOVER WHO WE ARE & HOW WE WILL LEAD
   The People will create an engaging narrative to highlight the values we share - freedom, equality, opportunity and dignity for every American. This enables us to create a road map to our future.
3. ACTIVATE THE CITIZENRY
   Through the power of the people, thousands of grassroots volunteers will spearhead nonpartisan major democratic reforms.
4. OWN ISSUES AND SPUR INNOVATION
   By focusing on common sense/common ground solutions to pressing issues, The People will find new solutions that strengthen our representative democracy.
