We hear from our grassroots partners that part of the challenge is how politicians often show up when they need to win an election, and then they leave. This approach of dropping in right before an election does little for the community that people may be trying to rally. But supporting year-round civic engagement provides an entry point for communities to begin to engage more intentionally with the political system at the local, state, and federal levels.
