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/

Anchorage Women for Democracy
I've gathered 11 other women friends (all retired) together, we have had 3 meetings--tend to run every 5 weeks or so. We are currently winging the month to month dates--we Alaskans do a lot of traveling in the winter :-). We are focused on voting (as a group) and keeping our ranked choice voting in place. We communicate for rallies and other things of interest--and I think various combinations of folk will do other things. We've enjoyed our conversations, companionship, and speaker engagements. We are still exploring...definitely focused on community...and most of us are already active in a variety of ways. Unsure where this will go! But it felt good to start something.

Your Liberal Mom Friends - Pgh West Hills
We are a brand new (nonpartisan but left leaning) progressive group of activist Robinson residents and Montour parents resisting the fascist regime. Focusing on staying informed in the West Hills and making Good trouble with noncompliance and noncooperation. This group is hyper localized so we can work together to keep an eye on our school boards in Montour, Moon, West A, Sto Rox, Cornell, QV, and surrounding local representatives and local government, keeping far right extremists out of the West Hills. We want you to join even if you're not into politics, it's about providing safety in numbers and building community.

Every Voice Matters (South Metro ATL)
If you've been feeling unsettled, heartbroken, or overwhelmed by what's happening in our country - you're not alone. Many of us are carrying the same quiet question: What can I actually do? We invite women who feel that pull - not toward outrage, but toward connection and positive action. We're forming a group of women who want to come together, support one another and channel our concern into something meaningful. No prior experience required. No perfection expected. Just a willingness to show up, listen, and take small, intentional steps alongside others who care. This space is for you if you: Feel the weight of this moment and don't want to carry it alone Believe community is a form of resistance Want to turn concern into constructive action, together We don't have all the answers - but we believe that when women gather with purpose, something powerful happens. Come as you are. Bring your questions, your hope, your hesitation. Let's remind each other that we're not powerless - and we don't have to do this alone. If this resonates with you, we'd love to have you join us! Bridget, Debbie and Ann Marie

Bonfire Massachusetts - Cambridge/Strawberry Hill
This Bonfire is for women who live in Cambridge's Strawberry Hill neighborhood (including Aberdeen & Homer Ave). We are keeping this group hyper-local, bringing us together for monthly in person gatherings in our living rooms, backyards, community center, cafes, etc... The goal of this Bonfire is to create connection and a felt sense of community in our little corner of Cambridge. In addition to monthly gatherings focused on personal, professional, and civic engagement, we also share resources and opportunities like taking care of the bike path, heading out for dancing, collecting food donations, neighborly advice, etc.... 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. As a sober person, the head of the Strawberry Hill Bonfire does not like having the word "wine" involved with the name of this organization, but understands it's origins and why it is being used. Please know our monthly Bonfire gatherings are alcohol free. If you don't live in the Strawberry Hill neighborhood of Cambridge, please click "Contact Organizer" above so the head of the group can talk to you about what it would be like for you to start your own Bonfire. It would be amazing to have more groups in Massachusetts. If you do live in Strawberry Hill, please click above to "Join Group". Don't worry about answering the questions about what you are interested in or whether you campaign or are part of other groups. Instead, please share what street you live on and who referred you to this Bonfire. 🔥🔥🔥
