Our Alliances

Our Alliances

National Alliances:

Right to the City Alliance (RttC):

The RttC Alliance emerged in 2007 as a unified response to gentrification and a call to halt the displacement of low income people, LGBTQ, and youths of color from their historic urban neighborhoods. The RttC is a national alliance of racial, economic and environmental justice organizations, as well as resource allies and individual supporters

Inter-Alliance Dialogue (IAD):

The IAD includes five national alliances – Jobs with Justice, Right to the City Alliance,  National Domestic Workers Alliance, Grassroots Global Justice, and the National Day Laborers Organizing Network – that have come together to collectively work on issues and capacity-building initiatives.

New Majority Network:

The New Majority model is a strategic approach to power-building that that links micro-targeted electoral organizing with the ideological approach to community organizing developed over the last 20 years. The model is a power-building strategy that seeks to expand democracy in terms of who participates and maximize what democracy can look like. There are currently “New Majority” organizations in three states: Virginia, Florida and New Mexico.

State Alliances:

Virginia Civic Engagement Table (VCET):

The VCET helps grassroots organizations win shared policy and civic engagement victories by creating a common strategic framework and increasing the capacity of member organizations to create sustainable progressive change.

Cardinal Values Coalition (CVC):

The CVC is made up of progressive organizations, individuals and activists, who are working together to pool resources and strategies, win elections, sustain success, and forge a foundation in communities throughout the Commonwealth.

Better Choices for Virginia Coalition (BCV):

The BCV advocates for a government that is a full partner in supporting the health, welfare, prosperity, and competitiveness of Virginians, Virginia businesses, and Virginia localities. The BCV believes that Virginia’s future prosperity depends on a balanced approach that includes new revenue, rather than a cuts-only strategy that will cost jobs and slow down our economy.
