One Richmond. A better Richmond begins with unity among our city’s diverse communities.

People Over Corporations. We refuse corporate money, relying instead on the collective power of people.

Transparent Democracy. True democracy means open government, where people work with and hold officials accountable.

Diversity and Respect. Richmond’s strength is in our diversity. Together, we build a progressive movement rooted in mutual support.

Winning Elections

We are a powerhouse engine of winning elections. From organizing neighbors to knock on doors, providing training to RPA electeds, and harnessing our data, RPA candidates win.

Holding City Hall Accountable

Our Council Action Team supports accountable governance by researching policy, facilitating communication between residents and elected officials, and ensuring we are heard in City Hall.

Standing Against Billionaires

From organizing against fascism to moving power away from Chevron and into the hands of our community, RPA stands with our working neighbors in Richmond.

Internal Organizing

Every democratic organization needs a robust culture of internal organizing. Managing the office, running social media channels, and using tech to further our work.
