Community Power:

Community residents do not need to fear the government, the government should fear its residents.

Find:

Help us find or draft community residents who align their values and beliefs that want to improve the quality of life of their neighbors to run for local elected positions in Berwyn and Cicero.

No role is too small, be a board member for the park district, library, schools, or city/town.

Create:

We strive to provide opportunities for individuals to run for local office.

Lead or Support:

As community residents, we want to see you lead with the community’s interest in mind. As community residents, we want you to support candidates that run on a platform that benefits the majority and now just the few. Lead or Support, we need each other to create a better environment.
