Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Action NC is a community organization and citizen action group that educates, organizes, and mobilizes residents of low-wealth communities to represent their own interests on issues of social and economic concern. Through grassroots outreach and base-building, training and leadership development, and strategic campaign planning and execution, residents work together to determine their priorities and make action plans to win concrete improvements. Our issues include but are not limited to public education, health care access, financial justice, employment and wages, affordable housing and tenant rights, immigrant rights, voting rights, and local investment and development. Through house meetings, community meetings and forums, participation in public hearings, and direct action, residents take their concerns directly to public officials and private sector decision-makers and wage campaigns for specific reforms and a greater voice in decisions that affect them.

Educate, organize, and mobilize residents of low-wealth communities.

IRS990/Desc0Employment Rights: (includes Raise Up campaign) : We have campaigned for raising the minimum wage to a living wage at the local, state and national level, and for the adoption of more family-friendly workplace policies like paid sick and paid family leave. In 2016 we won a raise to $15 per hour for Charlotte municipal employees, and an increase in paid family leave for Durham, Chapel Hill and Creedmor city employees.

IRS990/MissionDesc0Action NC is a community organization and citizen action group that educates, organizes, and mobilizes residents of low-wealth communities to represent their own interests on issues of social and economic concern. Through grassroots outreach and base-building, training and leadership development, and strategic campaign planning and execution, residents work together to determine their priorities and make action plans to win concrete improvements. Our issues include but are not limited to public education, health care access, financial justice, employment and wages, affordable housing and tenant rights, immigrant rights, voting rights, and local investment and development. Through house meetings, community meetings and forums, participation in public hearings, and direct action, residents take their concerns directly to public officials and private sector decision-makers and wage campaigns for specific reforms and a greater voice in decisions that affect them.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Voting Rights & Engagement: We have organized in support of greater voting rights and voter participation, and in opposition to voter suppression legislation and other legal measures designed to reduce ballot access. We register voters, conduct non-partisan Get Out the Vote drives, provide poll monitors for election protection, and are active in work to eliminate illegal gerrymandering and turn North Carolina's redistricting process over to an independent commission less likely swayed by partisan considerations. In 2016 we knocked on over 80,000 doors in Mecklenburg and Cumberland Counties to turn out New American Majority voters.
