Mission

Our mission is to provide a practical holistic framework for a city, state or rural community to create a civic culture that can strengthen its civic capacity — its ability to work together to solve collective problems — as well as create a more robust nonprofit sector with the giving, volunteering and sense of community responsibility needed to successfully address the educational, social, economic and environmental challenges it faces.

About

DC Tutoring & Mentoring Initiative: The goal of DCTMI is to create a public campaign to get a volunteer tutor or mentor for the 2 out of 3 DC students reading below grade level (60,000+ students) or with other academic or non-academic needs -- but also to do something even bigger: Show that a community can work together around a shared civic and moral vision. We recruit and place volunteers with 40 partner tutoring and mentoring organizations and schools. The foundation for our work is through volunteer canvassing at farmers markets and other public events and spaces. We also do outreach to religious congregations and employers, and use social media and other approaches. We measure our results both in terms of short-term recruitment and long-term change in our civic culture. Our concrete successes are modest at this point -- we recruited 1,600 people in 2018 and not the tens of thousands that is our goal. That said, just as we all have learned that physical exercise is not just for serious athletes but is the foundation for healthy bodies and minds, so we believe that our holistic approach focused on building our "civic muscles and skills" and changing our civic culture will be most successful in the long run.
