Popular Democracy operates the Center for Popular Democracy (CPD), a national civic and social organization focused on equity, opportunity, and a dynamic democracy. It partners with base-building groups, organizing alliances, and progressive unions to strengthen capacity for pursuing a pro-worker, pro-immigrant, and racially and economically just agenda. Through long-term collaborations with community-based organizations nationwide, CPD works to influence local and state policy and to build momentum from the ground up. Staff bring decades of experience, blending technical and legal expertise with hands-on organizing know-how to help partners win campaigns, sustain gains, and extend their reach. The organization emphasizes building durable organizational infrastructure and political muscle, aiming to generate momentum beyond individual policy wins by addressing root causes and fostering broad consensus. Based in Brooklyn, New York, it operates as a mid-sized national organization focused on trust, collective capacity, and strengthening the progressive movement.
