Appleseed Foundation

VOTER WORK

The Appleseed Foundation's mission is to build a just society through legal advocacy, community activism, and policy expertise. We work locally to address root causes and produce practical, systemic solutions. We strive for a society in which opportunities are genuine, access to the law is universal and equal, and power is used to advance the public interest.

DESCRIPTION

The Appleseed Foundation is a national affiliate organization that believes change is made best at the local level. Organizing, supporting, and assisting a national network of 15 independent centers, Appleseed solves difficult problems in communities by leveraging the skills and commitment of local volunteers.

Reforming the juvenile justice system. Improving foster care conditions. Strengthening public education. Protecting low-income consumers. Appleseed finds the greatest needs in communities, tackles their root causes, and crafts practical, lasting solutions.
