About PACT

Our Values

PACT’s community organizing activities are driven by shared core values.

We believe:

People should have a say in the decisions that shape their lives.
Everyday people know best what their families and communities need.
When people have power they can protect the things that are important to their families and their communities.
Strong democratic organizations are rooted in the needs and resources of local communities.
Government – federal, state and local - plays an essential role in supporting families and building strong communities.
Family is a value that motivates participation in public life.
Racial, ethnic, religious and regional diversity enriches our society.
Religion brings us together rather than divides America.

The immigrant experience is a universal American story

“In these days of political apathy, PACT’s hundreds of volunteers are a ray of hope. They are living proof that each one of us can make a positive, real difference. This is democracy in action!”
