Everyday Democracy in Denver

Community volunteer Sharon Chesterman attended Everyday Democracy’s National Conference last June. “Making Every Voice Count” brought national and community leaders together to address problems and find solutions.

Everyday Democracy has provided advice and training to more than 500 communities across the country since 1989. Using what works, they create innovative tools and processes to benefit communities. Their learning never stops. Their goal is to help people work together for creative community change and that communities can work better for everyone. Their real-life stories of what is working give hope and inspiration to everyone.

Everyday Democracy, formerly Study Circles Resource Center, created “Thriving Communities,” the guide that community members used for Royal Roundtables at the beginning of the Horizons program.
