Virginia Organizing, founded in 1995, is a non-partisan statewide grassroots organization dedicated to challenging injustice by empowering people in local communities to address issues that affect the quality of their lives. As a non-partisan organization, Virginia Organizing especially encourages the participation of those who have traditionally had little or no voice in our society. By building relationships with diverse individuals and groups throughout the state, Virginia Organizing enhances their ability to work together at a statewide level, democratically and non-violently, for change.
