NEW AMERICA COALITION Inc. Community Listening Tour

A Community-Centered Civic Engagement Initiative | 10 Events
Eastern Seaboard Battleground States

Executive Summary

The New America Coalition Listening Tour is a ten-event,  multi-state civic engagement initiative designed to strengthen democratic participation by centering the voices of underrepresented communities. Conducted across minority-serving campuses and communities in battleground states along the Eastern Seaboard, the tour integrates facilitated listening sessions, community storytelling, leadership identification, and nonpartisan voter registration into a single, scalable engagement model.

Overview

The New America Coalition Listening Tour is a three-month civic engagement initiative focused on communities that are essential to democratic participation, but too often left out of public decision-making.
The model starts with a simple idea: meaningful civic engagement begins with listening, trust-building, and real relationships.
