Organizations Healing the Divide
The Better Arguments Project is a national civic initiative created to help bridge divides – not by papering over those divides but by helping people have better arguments.
Braver Angels is leading the nation’s largest cross-partisan, volunteer-led movement to bridge the partisan divide for the good of our democratic republic. They’re bringing together “We the People” to find a hopeful alternative to toxic politics. The American Hope campaign is equipping Americans across the political spectrum to work together and demand the same of politicians from both parties.
More in Common uses research to understand the forces driving us apart and to develop solutions to find common ground, and help to bring people together to tackle our shared challenges and make a real difference at scale. They also help build the larger field of efforts to strengthen democratic societies against the threats of polarization and division.
This nonprofit partners with community organizations across the U.S. to build a culture of dialogue across differences on charged political issues in American life.
The Rural Urban Bridge Initiative invites liberals and progressives to think differently, talk differently, and act differently in order to understand the causes of the rural-urban divide and then do something to repair it. They develop political, economic and communications strategies that build bridges and serve the common interests of working and middle class Americans.
Starts With Us is a movement to overcome political and cultural division in America by practicing curiosity, compassion, and courage every day.
David Brooks, writer for The New York Times and The Atlantic, one of our favorite people, started this organization to heal the divide. Check them out.
