CENTERING PEOPLE. BUILDING POWER. DEFENDING DEMOCRACY
United Vision for Idaho (UVI) is a statewide, multi-issue progressive network committed to building a powerful, people-driven movement for lasting, structural change. Since 1997, we’ve been uniting communities—rural, suburban, and urban—through shared purpose, collective action, and a vision for a more just and democratic future.
A strategic force in the national pro-democracy movement, we’re not just defending democracy—we’re transforming it into something more inclusive, resilient, and rooted in the power of everyday people.
At UVI, we believe that lasting progress doesn’t come from single-issue efforts or short-term wins. It comes from investing in people and movements that grow from the ground up—especially in rural places like Idaho, where communities are too often left out of the national conversation. That’s why we focus on building the infrastructure, relationships, and leadership needed to drive real transformation—locally and nationally.
Our mission is guided by a simple but profound truth: we all do better when we all do better. We are organizing to reclaim our voice, protect our freedoms, and ensure that democracy works for everyone—not just the privileged few. Idaho is not on the sidelines of this fight—it’s at the center of an emerging, people-powered pro-democracy movement.
We know what we’re up against: concentrated power, extremist forces, and systems designed to divide and disempower. But we also know our collective strength. At UVI, we’re creating space for people to come together, share power, and shape the future—together.
Welcome. Your voice matters here. Let’s build a future where no one is left out.
We're organizing thousands of people around a bold agenda for real change. Our agenda isn't a list of policies the establishment says we can win. It reflects what our communities must win.
UVI works to build the infrastructure and relationships needed to champion our greatest collective struggles, centering real people in the social justice movement driven by masses of real people who demand better and are dedicated to community guided by the principle that we all do better when we all do better!
No matter where we come from, what we look like, or what we’ve been through—our futures are bound together. In a time of deep division, we have a responsibility to mend what’s broken, heal our collective wounds, and build a world where all of us can thrive. That work must be rooted in community and democratic values and driven by honest, courageous people willing to step into the breach across our differences and borders to build a people's movement that holds all parties to account and advances our promise of building a more inclusive, equitable and fair world for all of us.
We owe it to ourselves—and to future generations—to rise to this moment.
At our core, we’re all human beings. This is a time to stand with and for one another, not just despite our differences, but because of them. We must resist anything—and anyone—that seeks to divide us or diminish our collective future.
Crisis brings pain, but it also brings opportunity and possibility. If we meet this moment with courage, conviction, and solidarity, we can create something better and plant the seeds for lasting change.

Our core framework to dismantle hate and strengthen democracy. Through Authentic Relational Organizing (ARO), we disrupt bias, disinformation, and extremism—while fostering civic resilience, empathy, and shared values across difference.

A nationally recognized model building grassroots leadership in communities most impacted by neglect and polarization. We center local voice while scaling civic power across Idaho, the U.S., and internationally.

We foster deep, trust-based relationships that strengthen social cohesion and unlock collective action. Through ongoing outreach and dynamic civic education, we create long-term capacity for democratic participation.
Training Hub for Civic Leadership
Offering hands-on training, real-time organizing practice, and leadership development, our hub equips people to lead where they live—building skills for lasting impact and democratic renewal.
Ground Up Innovations
From bold outreach to cutting-edge research, we co-create strategies to shape democracy’s future. Our scalable, people-powered innovations energize the broader movement for democracy.

This groundbreaking national training program teaches people how to have authentic dialogue, de-escalation, conflict navigation through daily virtual practice—empowering people to transform their communities from the inside out.
At a time of deep political division, we are stepping into the breach to have conversations across extreme differences to humanize one another, find areas of common understanding and move together toward a more democratic future for our collective wellbeing. This work is reaching people in areas of the country often dismissed to heal and unite our country.

As fundamental pillars of our democracy are being tested - freedom of the press is under attack which pose a grave threat to our democracy. It is more important than ever before that individuals are taking part in the story of how we are navigating these moments, showing up and standing up to determine the future that is still being written.
When you hear, "Join the Movement" what does that mean to you? This documentary is about how we all are taking action to build a movement to meet this moment. It's an unfolding story that cannot be told without millions of regular people acting in small and big ways. At a time when media concentration and censorship threaten freedoms of the press it's essential that we drive the narratives and find ourselves in it. It shows us our resolve and courage and inspires others to take meaningful action in their own communities. This is an invitation and an opportunity to make your community visible.
"Storytelling through the lens of the people has never been more vital. This is your opportunity to tell the real story—to share your stories of hope, of action, of momentum. Real change begins when many voices rise together. A story of action needs to be told by those shaping the future—by people making real change happen in the places they call home. This is our story: a living, unfolding narrative, woven together with the stories of people around the world. A story that needs to be told." – Steph Cullen. OMG FemaleFilmakers
The invitation is simple and urgent: share your story, submit your footage, and be part of shaping what comes next. Visit this link to learn more + submit your story.

You are the heartbeat of this movement.
At United Vision for Idaho, we believe lasting change doesn’t come from the top down—it comes from people like you. Since 1997, we’ve been building a powerful, grassroots movement rooted in community, equity, and democracy. And now more than ever before - it requires YOU!
This is a time when our freedoms, rights, and our democracy itself are being tested, your support helps us do what matters most: organize people, build deep relationships across differences, and lead with the conviction that no one gets left behind.
Every dollar you give is an investment in connection over division, people over profit, and action over apathy. It helps train local leaders, sustain vital organizing efforts, and amplify the voices of those too often ignored.
