We Are Trouble
Have you been trying to figure out how to do more to fight extremism, or you’re looking to be part of a like-minded community of troublemakers? Do you want a place to laugh, complain freely about politics, drink wine (or your favorite beverage of choice), and connect with like-minded people? Then you are in the right place! We Are Trouble will help you find other members in Centre County who share your frustration with the rise of extremism in this community. Yes — they do exist! Even if you feel alone, we guarantee, you are not! And guess what — it will be fun! It's fun to DO something to help create meaningful, lasting change. You don't have to identify as an “activist”, and you don't have to attend formally structured meetings. Join We Are Trouble to become informed, share your experiences in a social setting, and work with others who share your values to protect democracy on the local, state and national level.

Trans Minors Rights
Our goal is to empower transgender youth by educating our communities on issues facing young transgender people and providing youth with the knowledge and tools they need to combat gender dysphoria. Our focus is on advocacy across the state of Pennsylvania, but we hope to grow into surrounding states! Our communities are currently largest in Lancaster, Berks, and surrounding counties in PA. Join us to help educate doctors and teachers on trans care, provide gender-affirming products to trans youth, and talk to lawmakers about creating robust policies to protect trans and gender-nonconforming youth.

Supporters of Spotsylvania Public Schools
We are a non-partisan group dedicated to supporting the Spotsylvania Public School students, faculty and staff by helping to elect local school board and board of supervisor candidates that will support them. In 2023, we successfully helped to get three brand new women and one incumbent woman elected to our school board to overturn a majority pushing book bans and other right-wing agendas.

WAVE: (Williamson County) WillCo Activating Voter Engagement
WAVE (Williamson County- WillCo Activating Voter Engagement) is a nonpartisan grassroots movement committed to educating, empowering, and activating the electorate across Tennessee. If you are feeling politically abandoned, bewildered, or (temporarily) powerless, we're your people! We believe in returning to fair representation of all constituents, informed and educated voters, and courageous civic engagement. In an era of gerrymandering, polarization, and assumed party voting, WAVE advocates for a responsible electorate that won't be taken for granted. Our votes are earned - not assumed - and our voices won’t be silenced. Our group started in Williamson County, Tennessee, and our gerrymandered lines include (but not limited to): Williamson, Benton, Maury, Davidson, Dickson, Sumner, Stewart, Wilson, Montgomery, Hickman, Giles, Lewis, Humphreys, Perry, Lawrence, and Wayne counties. Bottomline, we welcome all Tennesseans to our group. Our non-partisan goals aren’t bound by party affiliation. We’re listening, talking, and working together to hold elected leaders (local, state, and federal) accountable to the people they serve. Help us build a coalition of educated, empowered Tennessee voters by joining the WAVE today.

Progressive Buzz
Progressive Buzz is an independent group of Red, Wine and Blue and TroubleNation (an arm of RWB) focused on protecting and saving our democracy by getting sh*t done! We welcome people who are new to politics, longtime activists, Democrats, Republicans, Independents, non-affiliated peeps...you get the idea. Come join us in creating a comfortable safe space where we can form new friendships, learn, commiserate, and share our feelings about what’s happening locally and across the country. Our judgement-free meetings will be in someone’s home or at a fun venue like a wine bar to keep the vibe chill. During our meetings, some of us might drink wine, some of us might not, some of us may curse, some of us may not - all that matters is that you're okay with it either way. In addition to the social and bonding time, we will be getting down to business. We'll incorporate a brief educational component into each meeting with easy, localized calls to action. It might be as simple as calling elected officials, attending a school board meeting, or completing a training. You know us women, we get it done! The group is based out of Brigham City and open to anyone in the state who is willing to make the drive (we'll try to find venues all along the Layton-Logan front)! If you are unsure whether this group is for you, please check out https://redwine.blue/who-we-are/ and https://redwine.blue/our-values/
