We are a national nonpartisan organization that aims to rebuild American civic culture through everyday opportunities to learn and engage. Our focus is on deliberative public processes that create better policy and strengthen relationships between governments and the people they represent.
Founded in 2017, Civic Genius (previously known as Common Ground Solutions), has always been dedicated to highlighting where Americans agree on the issues and connecting people with policymakers to make the case that we can move forward together. In 2021, we expanded our mission to include an educational dimension that emphasizes civic confidence and citizen empowerment.
