Vision Statement

We Are Power believes that the power to transform our world for the better lies within every individual, and that when individuals use their creativity, humor, and personal experience to inform their friends, neighbors, and fellow citizens, anything can happen.

We believe that solutions to the challenges we share can be found through organizing and communication.

Our goal is to provide easily digestible information in the form of short videos articles, and advocacy tutorials to inspire ideas for how individuals can make a positive impact.
