We believe in collaboration to build the power of the field and expand our collective impact.
In every state we work, we team up with partners on the ground who are in relationships with their community. These have included state tables, Progress Now affiliates, Planned Parenthood affiliates, and more. We share our research, messaging, and even what we’ve learned from strategies that didn’t work, so that we can leap forward and win together. Check out our Tools for the Field and connect with us to learn more about our work. We will gladly share our resources with you!
National Collaborations
WorkMoney – a nonprofit membership organization dedicated to lowering costs and raising incomes for all Americans, making American life more affordable and American families economically secure.
MomsRising Together – a social welfare organization primarily focused on nonpartisan education and advocacy on issues that matter most to women, moms, and families.
“There may be no other space . . . where we learned so much about a misunderstood core constituency than through Galvanize . . . Their focus on testing and measurement has added incredible value across our movement.”
Rural Democracy Initiative
Strategic Partnerships
Mindbridge Center – a nonprofit organization dedicated to transforming the impact of local, national, and international human rights work by integrating psychological and neurobiological applied science.
Mindbridge has taught us that 40-90% of everything we do is unconscious. At the heart of our strategy is a scientific understanding that much of our political behavior—how we respond to political ads, which candidates and policies we support—is driven not by conscious decision-making, but by deeply held values and subconscious neurobiology. This partnership allows us to apply the fundamentals of neuroscience and behavioral psychology to create values-based messaging and organizing strategies that are built on the art and science of persuasion.

Grow Progress – software products and services that provide the power to persuade more effectively by enabling customers to predict their audience’s personality traits so that they can get the right message to the right people. Voters who look the same don’t all think the same. Our work with Grow Progress involves data modeling to categorize people based not just on demographics, but on their values, personality traits, and beliefs. These categories, or profiles, allow us to identify which voters it makes the most sense for us to focus our time, energy, and resources on. Going beyond demographics to more deeply understand our audience and what impacts their voting behavior also helps us develop effective strategies.
The New Conversation Initiative – helps teams and movements leverage the power of deep canvassing to create lasting progressive change. We know that in order to create an America that works for everyone, we need to engage with voters year round to truly get to know what matters to them. Deep canvassing is an investment in conversations that open hearts and minds. Our collaboration with The New Conservation Initiative has taught us how to effectively incorporate deep canvassing as a key pillar of our work. Research has found it to be one of the most effective and durable forms of political persuasion because it engages the voter to persuade themselves.
