Creating Enduring Change Through Local Elections
If we want enduring change, we need strong policy and leaders rooted in our communities. Engaging in local elections is a critical way to support emerging leaders and ensure we have champions across all levels of government who share our vision for a sustainable, vibrant, and healthy Alaska.
Our Process: Endorse, Elect, Engage
The Alaska Center works to identify and support leaders who champion our values and are committed to building a regenerative and equitable economy. From School Board to Congress, we work to ensure our leaders truly represent their communities.
How We Do It:
- Endorse: We identify candidates who align with our vision of a thriving, just, and sustainable future.
- Elect: Through our affiliated independent expenditure and PAC, we support our most crucial endorsed candidates—those whose elections will shape the future of Alaska.
- Engage: Our work doesn't stop at the polls. Year-round, we keep Alaskans informed about their leaders and empower them to hold these leaders accountable.
Our Partner: The Alaska Center Education Fund (AKCEF)
Our sister nonprofit, AKCEF focuses on:
- Engage: Keep Alaskans informed on how to participate in elections and make their voices heard.
