Down Home North Carolina is building a statewide network of member-leaders who advocate for economic, climate, and racial justice in rural and small-town communities. They are successfully establishing a permanent, year-round organizing infrastructure in North Carolina’s rural areas by leveraging member-leaders who are deeply rooted in their communities. This project will utilize Down Home’s network to educate rural voters about the historic climate investment opportunities available to their communities while directing individuals interested in accessing federal financial benefits to the WorkMoney resource center.

Northern Plains Resource Council (NPRC) organizes a multi-generational mix of farmers, ranchers, environmentalists and rural people in some of the toughest parts of Montana to advocate for clean air, clean water, and progressive natural resource policies. We use face-to-face organizing to develop trust, win strategic campaigns, develop new leaders, and build power. Northern Plains is talking to hundreds of Montanans about the Biden Administrations investments in home energy rebates, LIHEAP, and REAP, to provide immediate financial relief to hundreds of economically stressed Montanans. NPRC’s educational campaign triages interested parties to WorkMoney’s resource center to streamline each individual’s enrollment process.

The organization helped pass the first GHG reduction bills in the 2000s, won commitments for 100% renewable energy at the campus, city, and state level accomplished with a Boards of Directors made up entirely of current college students. This spring, the Student PIRGs aim to leverage their year-round infrastructure on campuses in Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Georgia to educate young people about how their network and families can save money and save the environment through new programs and tax incentives created by the Inflation Reduction Act.
