This event explores the research and practice of grassroots organizations that combine a public charity with a social welfare organization to engage in community organizing, policy change, and political action. We will share findings from a recent research study about the opportunities and challenges of grassroots multi-entity organizations and hear lessons from leaders of Down Home North Carolina, a grassroots organization that is building power with poor and working-class people in North Carolina’s small towns and rural communities.
