Program areas at Rights and Democracy Project
Renews:Our Renews work spans many issues in Vermont and New Hampshire. In Vermont, we advocated for the passage of the Environmental Justice Act, Universal School Meals, the Clean Heat Standard, Equity in Land Access, and Burlington's Just Cause Eviction Charter Changes.
Movement Politics:RAD conducted candidate recruitment and training in VT and NH and endorsed candidates running for local and state offices. We held virtual panel discussions and GOTV campaigns to raise public awareness of elections and encourage people to vote.
Grassroots Organizing:Issue organizing is a key component of our base-building strategy. We held a Lobby Day (VT) during which our members visited the statehouse to testify in Committees. We offered workshops on how to testify at public hearings and how to meet with your legislator.We engaged people throughout VT and NH via phone, text, and door knocking to engage people in meaningful conversations across many issues including climate, housing/homelessness, healthcare justice, the opioid crisis, and workers' rights.
