Weaving Us

Weaving Us is a community for people working to repair the social fabric of America by building relationships and trust, starting where they live.

Created by the Aspen Institute’s Weave: The Social Fabric Project, this app is a supportive home for local leaders, volunteers, nonprofit founders, and everyday neighbors who want to build strong, connected communities where everyone thrives. Join if you hope to gather or are gathering people to create belonging and make life better in your neighborhood or city - whether through a community garden, an anti-violence campaign, a public mural, or anything else. Or join if you simply want to meet and learn from others weaving their communities together.

Perhaps you are applying for or have received a Weaver Award or are just drawn to the mission of strengthening connection and uniting America. The Weave Community is a place to grow, learn, and lead with others. Participate in vibrant conversations, access on-demand learning courses, discover grants and fellowships, find support from peers, and attend live events—all from one place.

Inside the Weaving Us app, you’ll find:

+ Courses on storytelling, fundraising, and nonprofit leadership

+ Resources, grants, and news relevant to your work

+ Community forums and groups organized by location and interest

+ A space to share updates, ask questions, and reflect with others like you

+ Events to connect in real time and celebrate progress

+ Opportunities to exchange ideas and receive feedback


Make this your home to connect with others who want to create a strong, united country from the ground up.
