Building Community in the Copper Country
Hello, friends! We have a very active community here in the Keweenaw/Copper Country. My goal is to help create a community that uplifts and protects everyone. I want to make community information more accessible and to encourage everyone to get out there and get involved. I will work with any local progressive groups to create a centralized "hub" of information and events. The core values of this page are: Help fight corruption by building community. Many people feel powerless right now when we look at the big picture. But through local government and organization, we have the best way to make a real impact. Joy is resistance. We need to rest, and love, and have fun. We can not make it through hard times without it and without each other. Community means helping and protecting our neighbors. To do that, we need to KNOW our neighbors. Similarily, this is a safe space for everyone. But, that does not include hate, bullying, misinformation, or bigotry.

Bonfire - Decatur
Bonfire brings people together in real-world spaces, to grow, learn, and spark change — together, in person. We’re building community right in your backyard, with events and gatherings that offer opportunities for personal, professional, and political engagement and fulfillment. If you are looking for connection and joy, seeking inspiration or have some to share, we have a seat by our fire for you! Bonfire was created for women of all ages and backgrounds, but is not exclusive to women. Created in partnership with Red Wine & Blue’s TroubleNation, Bonfire groups are local communities led by volunteer organizers who want to bring people together where they live. TroubleNation provides the tools, training, and support to help these groups grow and thrive — while keeping community building at the center. Bonfire - Decatur aims to build a fierce community of women gathering around shared values, focusing on personal, professional, and political aspirations. We are creating a safe space for women to own their voices and step into their power together. We will be scheduling regular monthly meetings that include meetups in member's homes, local restaurants and coffee shops, as well as planning regular events outside of our monthly get-togethers, such as museum visits and volunteering opportunities.

Ladies Auxiliary Mutual Aid Society and Resistance Cell
We are a group of (mostly) retired women, long-time friends, who meet for fun and mutual support. We want to write letters to representatives and newspapers. We are based primarily in mid-Atlanta or inner-ring suburbs (Decatur, East Point). We want to focus on state-level and national advocacy, mostly, as we represent various municipalities, school boards, etc. We represent various professions, weighted toward health and education. For now we want to be a private group (or at least want to invite members personally), though having tools to plug into nationwide advocacy campaigns without being barraged with requests to donate funds would be really welcome!
