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/

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.

Common Sense
Our mission is to work as a non-partisan community to build stronger, safer schools. We believe basic isn’t good enough—our students deserve excellence in education. We are committed to working with our schools and our neighbors to ensure that school policies come from a place of inclusiveness and understanding, not bias, and curriculum represents and celebrates the diversity of our community and our world.

We C.A.R.E (Community, Action, Research & Education)
We C.A.R.E. (Community Action, Research & Education) is a diverse, community-based, action-oriented group that brings people of all backgrounds & abilities together to make a meaningful difference in the South-Central Ohio region. We organize because we love our community and we’re done waiting for someone else to fix it. We are committed to encouraging respectful/informed dialogue, promoting civic engagement and working collaboratively to ensure a vibrant and inclusive community for all. Our goal is to create a network of highly-motivated, compassionate people to identify critical issues facing South-Central Ohio where we can be the most effective and execute supportive actions as quickly and efficiently as possible. We seek to find those in need, empower one another to act and help fill in the cracks in the community. We will also utilize a variety of research methods and tools to identify and explain issues that are not widely reported, but extremely important to our people and our community. This is a nonpartisan and multi-partisan group that brings together a wide variety of people and groups. Some of us align with a specific political party and others don't. Some people in our network are part of established community groups, and some people are individuals who simply want to make an impact but think they are alone. We will work together in many ways depending on our own needs, talent and time. Most of our organizing and meetings will be conducted virtually through Facebook and Zoom; however, we will meet up for action days and a variety of fun activities designed to relieve stress and build friendships. Together, we'll stay informed, engaged, and empowered to make a difference in our community and beyond. Our meetings are designed to discuss relevant topics, share actions needed immediately, and rally our troops to take action. We are in a time of information overload. It is often difficult to keep up with all the important topics at any given time, so we welcome people to champion an issue, inform the group on it, and plan the action(s). We are an independent group but also part of the Red, Wine & Blue Network community so we have access to workshops and tools to help us in our efforts.
