Pledge to make a difference, together.
Alliance Citoyenne members are low-income families affected by social problems and discriminations. Inspired by community organizing and power of action methods, the association has 9500 members living in working-class neighborhoods in Seine-St-Denis and in the Grenoble, Lyon and Montpellier agglomerations. People meet and build collective demands, conduct citizen surveys and put their problems on the agenda of institutions through nonviolent actions in the public space. Citizen participation and democracy is for us a way to defend rights and reduce social injustices. Since its creation in 2012, its team of professional community organizers has accompanied hundreds of citizens' group to defend their housing rights, rights of people with disabilities, improvements in a fair delivery of public services in poor neighborhoods, and helped Muslim women to voice their on concerns. Typical expenditures is community organizers' wage and training cost for members.
