All eyes will be on Virginia as election season has started already. Virginia is the only southern state with reproductive rights. We want to keep Virginia leading the way forward. By electing a democratic majority statewide, we will have the opportunity to protect public education, marriage equality, reproductive freedom, voting rights, and address climate change and green energy initiatives.

The threats we face demand a bold and unwavering response. To secure a brighter future, we must rise together, lead with purpose, and unite in collective action. This journey requires learning, growth, and forging alliances. Our strength lies in solidarity, as we work toward a future where freedom thrives and compassion shapes our path. Victory will come from reclaiming tomorrow, mobilizing our forces, and standing resolute.

Are you ready to rise to meet the moment?

The Summit will energize us to take action, learn new skills, and expand our networks.

Virginia’s premier grassroots event unites activists, organizations, elected officials, and candidates to ignite change. Through workshops, strategic planning, resource-sharing, and issue-driven programming, we’ll equip ourselves with the tools to combat extremism and inspire action. The Summit is not only a call to action—it’s an opportunity to connect, have fun, and step boldly into uncharted territory.

The Summit will empower us to speak the truth, infuse knowledge, embrace creativity, and demand agency.

In 2025, we’ll redefine how democrats campaign, engage, and invest in our communities. By challenging the status quo, we’ll envision and implement a bold new future. The Summit will empower us to speak truth, embrace innovation, and demand real agency in shaping our destiny.

The Summit will mobilize us to act.

We are confronting the greatest challenge to our democracy. There’s no room for retreat or hesitation. In the face of uncertainty, we must summon courage, remain vigilant, and take decisive action. Communication will be our lifeline, and a united community sharing YOUR vision of a better world will be our foundation. This Summit will prepare us to mobilize and take meaningful action.

Join us in June—let’s rise, lead, and build the future we deserve..
