The Initiative
CommonPlace is a web platform for local community engagement.
Our goal is to help neighbors and communities leaders to share information with the people around them and empower them to build awesome things for their communities.
CommonPlace works with cities across the country. We'd love to work with yours! If you're interested in a CommonPlace in your town, contact organizing@commonplaceUSA.com and fill out the form above.
Our Technology
CommonPlace is designed to make it easy to publicize events, get help, and and share news with the people around you.
Use the site to meet new people, access vital information and find opportunities to leave the house.
Organizing
CommonPlace grows by engaging communities on the ground.
For our community partners, we provide: a fully-hosted CommonPlace platform; a full time on-the-ground community organizer, who works to bring the community onto the CommonPlace platform; lifetime feature updates and full-time customer service.
