WHY THE ALLY NETWORK?

Full of post election energy, many people are asking how to get involved. Existing organizations are already working hard in our communities. The Ally Network connects the power of volunteers with local actions and events. Networking strengthens all of our efforts.

The Network is a resource available to everyone. Our platforms will be regularly updated. Check out the Calendar for local Kentuckiana events, find things you can do under Action Items, review our Resources page to build your personal toolkit of knowledge and attend our forums as able.

CAN I ACCESS THE NETWORK IF I DON'T JOIN?
WHY JOIN?

As an individual, you will connect to our platform, receive newsletters with timely calls to action and member organization updates by simply providing your email address and zip code.

​

As an organization, you will have access to people who are looking to make meaningful contributions. Your message, events, talking points, agenda and action items are amplified across all member organizations' allies. Attend our monthly forums to network and inform.

The WE is all of us in Kentuckiana who are ready to mobilize and take local action to counter hate, fight legislative assaults on progressive causes, and respond to local and national events.

​

There are a few working on the website, a social media presence, a newsletter and monthly forums linking allies and existing organizations. Email info@theallynetwork.org if you would like to contribute to this work.
