Company Profile

Company Description:

PICO National Network is the largest grassroots faith-based organizing network in the United States. For 40 years PICO has brought people of faith together to advance racial and economic justice and create a society in which everyone belongs and can thrive. Through a network of 45 state, regional and local organizations and 3,000 religious congregations in 21 states, PICO provides an opportunity for thousands of volunteer leaders to stand up and be heard on the public and corporate decisions that most directly shape their lives.
 
PICO organizations have successfully changed public policies at the local, state and federal level to remove barriers to employment for men and women returning from incarceration, protect immigrants from deportation and help working families obtain affordable health coverage, provide their children with a better education, protect their homes from foreclosure and secure good jobs. Through an innovative campaign infrastructure that ties together grassroots people-led organizing in more than 200 cities and towns with large-scale efforts to change federal policy, PICO is currently leading campaigns to help with citizenship for 11 million aspiring Americans, end mass-incarceration, and raise wages and benefits for working people.
