All In Together
Who They Are
All In Together (AIT) is a nonpartisan nonprofit organization advancing women’s civic and political leadership across the United States. Founded in 2014, AIT empowers women from all backgrounds—regardless of political affiliation—to become confident and effective advocates in their communities, workplaces, and public life.
With a deep commitment to equity and democracy, AIT brings civic education and leadership development directly to communities that have been historically excluded from power, especially women of color, rural women, and those in low-income and underrepresented regions.
What They Do
Civic Education Workshops
Delivers free, nonpartisan trainings across the country to help women understand government systems, develop advocacy skills, and increase local engagement.Community Leadership Cohorts
Supports regional organizing through cohort-based programs that equip women with tools to create change at the grassroots level.Thought Leadership & Polling
Publishes groundbreaking research on the civic attitudes, behaviors, and barriers facing women—including the AIT Women's Voices series and cross-partisan polling.Coalition Building
Partners with national and local organizations to uplift diverse women’s voices in public policy, social justice, and democratic participation.
Why They Matter
AIT is addressing the representation gap not just by focusing on who holds elected office, but by reshaping who feels empowered to speak, organize, and lead. Their approach is grassroots, relational, and deeply intersectional—emphasizing that democracy is strongest when all voices are heard, especially those historically silenced.
Connection to The Change Lab
The Change Lab and AIT share a mission of broadening civic participation and building systems that reflect the full diversity of our communities. Their work to amplify women’s leadership—especially across lines of difference—supports our mutual goals of cultivating belonging, dismantling exclusion, and reweaving the civic fabric from the ground up.
AIT’s Starter Guide to Civic Engagement

In the 10 years AIT has been training women across America to get involved with politics and community service, we have worked with women at every level of civic involvement. In honor of our 10th anniversary, we have pooled together resources and trainings from across our 10 years into this handy starter guide for civic engagement.

Are you ready to move beyond voting into deeper civic engagement?
I want to start advocating for my community
A big part of advocacy is learning how to tell your story and your community’s story in a way that feels comfortable to you. Our templates will help you connect your story to the change you hope to see, and figure out what issues you should focus on.
One way to level up your community engagement is to seek an appointed position on a local or state-level board or commission. Get started here.
If you are interested in advocating for specific groups of people – try finding organizations that focus on those populations and see how you can help! Here are a few of our suggestions for ways to start
I want to learn how to meet with my representatives and build relationships with them
Meeting your representatives and building relationships with them either as an individual or community group takes persistence. It will always be easier to do at the local level as your city or town council member will represent the fewest number of people compared to your state representative or Congressperson. All the officials in a district build relationships with each other as well, so your city councilperson will also be able to share the information they collected from you and your organization with other officials in the district. One way you can get to know your elected officials is by volunteering on their campaigns.
