At the National Issues Forums Institute, we believe democracy works best when people have the tools, spaces, and confidence to talk with one another, work through hard choices, and take action for the common good. Your gift helps NIFI equip communities, campuses, classrooms, and local leaders across the country with nonpartisan resources, training, and support to solve problems and strengthen civic life. By giving today, you help more people move from division and frustration toward listening, deliberation, shared responsibility, and meaningful action.

Your support helps NIFI:

• Develop and share nonpartisan issue guides and discussion materials
• Train facilitators, educators, students, and community leaders
• Support local conversations that help people talk, decide, and act together
• Expand national initiatives like “What’s Next, America?”
• Tell the stories of communities taking action for the public good
• Keep NIFI resources free and accessible to a broad range of partners

Your investment in NIFI helps people of all ages practice democracy where it matters most: in their classrooms, campuses, and communities.
