Welcome to Grassroots USA!
We would like to introduce you to an exciting new organization - Grassroots USA!

Grassroots USA

Our Mission

The Mission of Grassroots USA is simple - to educate and encourage grassroots participation in the political process. All citizens, regardless of their views, need to be involved, because at the end of the day government has a direct impact on our lives - no matter which side wins.

It seems that participation in politics and the political process is lessening as time passes. Voters between the ages of 18 and 25 are highly disengaged, and many simply don’t know what’s going on in government. What can we do? We need to educate and encourage!

One of the best ways to encourage grassroots participation is to recruit precinct delegates. Click here for more information on precinct delegate training.  A precinct delegate works closely with the local voting precinct, helping with the political process and encouraging involvement.  How can this be done?

Respect of opposing opinions.

Grassroots USA encourages a difference of opinion.  Nobody said we all have to agree (that’s how democracy works), yet we need to respect the opinions of others and encourage political participation.  In order to have a strong conservation and debate, people need to disagree.  If everyone agrees, then there is nothing new brought to the table.
 
Supporting Scholarship Funds

Supporting scholarship funds such as the Pat Carpio Scholarship.

If we can encourage young people to get involved, we will succeed in our mission to encourage grassroots and political participation. Furthermore it will strengthen the political system - not only in the state, but on the national level as well.
