Reclaiming Our Power for Radical Change

re:power: to provide again or anew with power; regarding power.We’re transforming how we think about power, who holds it, and how we wield it in our communities — we’re looking at power in every context, and speaking truth to it.

Who We Are

Fifteen years ago, we opened our doors as Wellstone Action. We’re proud to reveal our new identity as re:power as a trusted leader in political training around campaigning and capacity building. Our new name and brand is our answer to what the movement needs: an expansion of what justice looks like for our people through a framework of inclusive politics. We’re offering a different narrative of who is a leader, who participates in politics, and what outcomes we are fighting for.

Inclusive politics is a framework that makes space and creates structures for the leadership, needs, and victories of who we have identified as our communities: primarily people of color, and specifically, women of color. It means that those lived experiences, perspectives, and ideas are represented 
in our government and power structures.

We’re a team of organizers, strategists, and technologists dedicated to building transformative political power. Our 
work is tied to the belief that by partnering with individuals, organizations, and coalitions across the country, we can uncover leaders within communities to create radical change.

We’re excited to work with you on building a future of inclusive politics where decisions about our communities are made by our communities at all levels.

We Believe

RE: BUILDING POLITICAL POWER 
We believe in co-creating with 
action-oriented partners to expand 
the ways people think about politics.

RE: JUSTICE
We believe in expanding our definition 
of justice to confront interconnected systems of oppression that keep us 
from our liberation.

RE: LOCAL LEADERSHIP
We believe that by rooting our work 
in local communities we can cultivate leaders that authentically reflect and serve the communities they most impact.

RE: WINNING
We believe that real wins shift the narrative and support change over the long-term — how we do the work matters as much as the outcome.

RE: TECHNOLOGY
We believe in using technology as a space to build power with diverse leaders.

Work With Us

We work with organizations and individuals across the country to build towards 
a more inclusive politics — for us, that’s uncovering leadership through facilitation, skills training, and coalition building across communities.

We also deliver customized training opportunities — for more information, contact us at partnerships@repower.org.
