VOLUNTEERISM AS RESISTANCE

VOLUNTEERISM AS RESISTANCE

In the wake of the presidential election, many DC residents are moved to become engaged, re-engaged, or more deeply engaged in civic life. This website is a guide to organizations in and around DC - some over a century old, some just a few years old - that serve communities that may be facing increasing vulnerability, or fight for causes that are becoming more urgent under the current administration. They can all use your volunteer time and skills.
