Progressive Action Event Calendar

ABOUT PACG

Who we are and what we do:

We have come together as large umbrella non-partisan group of progressives the Quad Cities of Iowa and Illinois to engage folks on a variety of issues that also engage us through ACTION, the point of which is to educate, engage, promote, transform and bring about needed changes for the betterment of our communities and for the advancement of progressive values. We began organizing in January of 2005.

We've begun building a basic framework that will lead to the empowerment of a wide number of member groups and assist them in five essential areas:

  1. Understanding how each issue fits within a strategic initiative (who are our natural allies?).
  2. Establishing a media room through which we can assist our members in getting their message into the public domain.
  3. Building an activist tool kit and library.
  4. Developing programs and workshops aimed at strengthening our local progressive community.
  5. Understanding Progressive values and how they will influence public policy

Our intention is to help build a support network aimed at keeping activists active and reframe activism itself as simply good citizenry and to work for the common good of all in our communities.
