Check out Strong Towns. They’re a policy advocacy group that’s focused on helping people influence policy at the local level to make their towns livable again. I’m a part of my local strong towns group, and they’re absolutely great. We’re getting the ball rolling, organizing with other local activist groups, meeting with local politicians to understand our local challenges better, and all while receiving a lot of support from the mother ship organization. Meanwhile, our town isn’t some metropolis, it’s only 90,000 people.
If that isn’t your thing, just start going to city council or county board of supervisor meetings and start making public comments there. It’s a good way to meet with other policy advocates in your community and start networking with them.
