SPURRColorado
Who we are: SPURR (Social and Political Understanding of Reproductive Rights) was formed by three passionate women - a therapist, a documentary filmmaker and an architect who all benefited from safe abortions. The three were outraged by the Dobbs decision in 2022 which stripped the right to legal abortions, the first constitutional right ever to be rescinded. Our response? SPURR, an information platform that educates, organizes and "spurs" people into action. While we, along with many of our friends, feel fortunate to live in Colorado with its protections for reproductive rights, we understand the need to protect what we have and care for those in neighboring states who will be facing a healthcare crisis. We formed SPURR to curate and provide information, education, resources and opportunities for engagement for those who were equally concerned about the loss of this fundamental right. In doing so, we have discovered that we are part of an evolving nationwide, even global, effort of women helping women. Who We Are NOT: We are not a fundraising organization. We are not only women - we welcome men and people of all persuasions. We are not partisan, but we support candidates and organizations that protect and encourage a woman’s right to determine her own health care decisions. We are not experts - we are constantly learning and connecting with people who are experts to share this information with our community. We are friendly people. Please join us.

Eastern Panhandle Policies Over Parties
EPPOP is a nonpartisan, local group focused on restoring our country to a full representative democracy where the voice of the everyday citizen is valued again. We primarily concentrate our efforts on this through a two-pronged process. The first is to provide a consolidated location to obtain election and policy resources through our website and Facebook page, the second is to connect individuals in Berkeley and Jefferson Counties who want to build relationships across the political divides in order to meet the needs of all members of our community. We welcome new members and open, insightful discussion, especially those who wish to be a part of restoring democratic principles to our community and our country.

A2 Activists GoBlue
A2 Activists GoBlue is an Ann Arbor group dedicated to helping each other find meaningful, impactful ways to combat extremism, amid the demands of daily life. Tired of wringing our hands over the onslaught of scary news, from abortion and book bans to school shootings, hate crimes, voting restrictions, and irresponsible climate legislation, we came together in 2021 and decided to stop simply worrying and take action. We aim to foster a safe environment for ourselves and our communities, autonomy over our bodies, and inclusivity. Together, we found achievable steps we could take while juggling careers and families, and now, we hope to share opportunities to get involved with more local progressives. The members of A2 Activists GoBlue are tired, we’re fed up—but we’re not giving up.
