Be part of a community working towards the end of poverty (Lewiston, ME)

"Everyone should be asking themselves how they can take action, no matter their age. What is each of us going to do to change the world? Anyone can take that step to making a difference." Mary Domingo, RESULTS Wisconsin Volunteer

RESULTS is a movement of passionate, committed everyday people. Together, we raise our voices in our local communities and across the country to call for solutions to poverty here in the US and across the world.

We live our values each day by working with leaders to pass policies that will lead to our vision of a world free of poverty. Our community of volunteers and staff across the United States support each other to take collective action together.

Do you have a vision of a better, more equitable future?

You do not need to be a policy expert to make a difference at RESULTS. We will support you through training, mentoring, and monthly resources to learn the skills you need to be effective. The only thing necessary from you is a vision for a better future, the commitment to be part of the solution to poverty, and a few hours of time each month dedicated to taking advocacy actions.

By working together, we believe a better future is possible - a future where:

• All people have a safe, affordable place to call home
• Everyone can experience economic security
• No one is worried about where their next meal will come from
• All children receive a quality education
• People across the world have access to quality healthcare, nutrition, and education

Right now, this future is out of reach for too many people. Staggering inequality - driven by a history of oppressive policies - has created a world where too many people are held down and denied access to their basic rights and needs. We will not see a world free of poverty tomorrow unless we choose to take action and demand change today.

As a RESULTS advocate you will dedicate 4-6 hours / month taking advocacy actions like:

• Speaking with policymakers about problems in your community and solutions that can make a difference
• Publishing media to call attention to injustice in the world and solutions that need to happen
• Learning about the systems of oppression that continue to create poverty and inequality today and policy solutions that can make a difference
• Connecting with others in your community to build a powerful network of advocates working together for the end of poverty

Are you ready to make an impact and be part of the solution?
