Our Story
Helping state and local government build trust with their communities
State and local government are the beating heart of a well-functioning society.
But community trust—the key to their legitimacy—is broken.
We’re here to fix it.
Trust in government is at historic lows.
33%
Only 1 in 3 Americans have high trust in their state and local government
42%
Less than half of Americans trust government leaders
66%
Only 2 in 3 Americans trust local government handling local problems
To rebuild it, you need to accurately understand your community’s diverse needs and priorities.
The Challenge
Barriers to participation
Inconvenient meetings
Outdated input methods
| These challenges amplify the voices of a few and exclude the many, creating the “Same Ten People” problem that hinders effective government. Left out are diverse voices: the busy parent, the transient youth, the hesitant immigrant and many others. | This gap of understanding hampers government leaders, leading to uninformed decisions and disconnected residents. Operating with such a skewed view risks eroding trust.
