Become a Community Partner
Help Us Build Belonging—One Connection, One Pathway at a Time
At The Change Lab, we believe every organization—no matter its size, structure, or starting point—has a role to play in shaping a stronger, more connected civic life.
Whether you’re running neighborhood food drives, hosting storytelling circles, leading faith-based outreach, or launching new civic programs—we want to help amplify your work and connect it to a growing network of people ready to engage.
Why Partner?
As a Community Partner, you’ll help shape what’s next—and more people will find you through our shared Civic Pathways.
When you join, we’ll ask you to share:
Your mission and areas of focus
Events, gatherings, trainings, or offerings you want others to know about
Any tools, toolkits, or resources you’re willing to share
Which Civic Pathways your work most aligns with
We’ll map your work into our digital platform, newsletters, and community outreach efforts—so neighbors, educators, advocates, and other orgs can connect directly with what you offer.
You’re not just joining a network. You’re becoming part of the civic infrastructure.
We’ll Help You Share…
Trainings and eCourses
Webinars and live events
Campaigns and calls to action
Toolkits and curriculum
Fellowship or internship opportunities
Local programs and volunteer efforts
Podcasts, publications, and reports
Stories from your community
Whether you’re just starting out or have a deep bench of programs—we’ll help get it into the right hands.
Pay What You Want
Suggested Contribution: $5,000
Minimum Contribution: $5
If $5 is what you can pay, that’s enough.

Every partner receives the same access and support.
