A Movement to Rebuild American Community, One Relationship at a Time
Overview
Builders is a national movement of Americans from all walks of life who are committed to repairing our civic fabric by building trust, relationships, and common purpose. Whether in small towns or big cities, online or in person, Builders believe that community doesn’t just happen—it’s something we make, together. This nonpartisan initiative brings together people who are willing to act locally and connect across differences to strengthen democracy from the ground up.
Why It Matters
At The Change Lab, we believe in creating space for everyone to belong and contribute. Builders shares that vision by offering practical ways to grow social trust in a time of deep division. Their focus isn’t on policy or partisanship—it’s on people: neighbors, coworkers, strangers-turned-friends. By lifting up local leaders and everyday acts of connection, Builders reminds us that change starts with relationships.
