It’s never too late to change course. April is both Second Chance Month and Earth Month – a time to remember that people who were incarcerated deserve a second chance, and communities facing the worst of the climate crisis need help. We cannot give up on people or lose hope in the face of climate chaos. Instead, we must find common ground and fight for solutions even when angry voices try to keep us stuck in gridlock and the broken status quo.

“Civil death” may sound like a legal concept from ancient times. But civil death – stripping away fundamental rights while one is still alive – lives on in felony disenfranchisement. During Second Chance Month, discover how civil death and unjust laws, rooted in racism, continue to affect communities today. Then dive deeper to advocate for justice and voting rights restoration. Let's dismantle barriers to civic participation and support those rebuilding their lives.

Do you have a climate crisis story? Climate change affects every single neighborhood in its own way. In order to build momentum for action, we need to share stories of specific challenges and help develop effective solutions. April is Earth Month, the perfect opportunity to celebrate Mother Earth and become an advocate for change right where it impacts us the most — at home. So this month, we invite you to share your local climate woes. By adding a narrative to these challenges, you can drive real and sustainable action to mitigate these impacts for you and your community.

Urge Congress to upgrade our obsolete power grid! Do you know that one of the biggest obstacles standing in the way of a clean energy future is actually our power grid? Yet, Congress is delaying modernizing the grid to efficiently integrate clean energy, support widespread electrification, and withstand worsening climate disasters. Investing in a 21st-century grid will improve reliability, lower your costs, and power the transition to 80% renewable energy by 2030.
