And while there is a lot of farmland, there is also a gap in access to essential needs for people in the middle of those farms. There are stretches of land without cell service or internet capability. There are places with limited healthcare centers.There are areas without reliable and healthy food access known as "food deserts."
These areas that GIVE so much of their time, energy, and resources are a foundational pillar of our nation. But their voices and their votes often get skewed, with no help from limited access to transparent media and information.
They deserve the chance to know the truth about the policies that affect them and know that there are people from all over the country that want their needs to be met. They deserve accurate representation and leaders that will fight for them on the national and local levels.
We plan to make that happen. With our organizing infrastructure and the ROCC model, we actively support local groups to make sure that voices don't go unheard. After all, the farmers feed us! They deserve to be able to afford their best rural life and their health care too!
Help us to keep building this infrastructure by volunteering yourself or empowering this work by chipping in today!
