Survey Blurb:

Welcome! Thank you for participating in the Grassroots Research Group's Digital Resistance Survey. GRG is an all-volunteer organization that was created to research and build a data model that will translate the collective voice of the movement into a language elected officials and politicians understand: data. Your survey responses will contain no personal identifying information. This data will be used anonymously to develop a comprehensive, statewide picture of We The People—who we are, what we want, and what we need—that politicians NEED to understand. Thank you for lending your voice to the voices of so many others and speaking truth to power. If We The People all speak up together, we cannot be ignored.

Who is the Grassroots Research Group? The Grassroots Research Group is an all-volunteer nonprofit organization led by data analysts, digital survey experts, UX designers, digital privacy advocates, and grassroots activists.

We have a simple mission: to do the research necessary to speak truth to power. Each of has been engaged in Resistance groups and activities following the November 2016 Election and feel a personal responsibility to get involved. Our goal is to develop a better understanding of the explosion of citizen engagement in our state and ensure that the voices of activists and concerned citizens are heard by elected officials and party leaders.

To do that, we must speak in a language that politicians understand: data. We will use your survey responses (which contain no personal identifying information about you) to build a data model that will show our elected officials how you feel, what you care about, and what you want them to do. (headshots and bios)

Why is GRG interested in what I have to say? Democracy is based on the idea that everyone’s voice matters—and so is GRG. Our goal is to add your voice to the multitude calling for change in a constructive, positive way. GRG will use survey responses to build a data model that will be publicly shared with elected officials and party leaders. It is 100% anonymous and GRG collects no personal identifying information. Our goal is not to gather information about you personally, but about the activist movement generally.

Why should I take the survey and make my voice heard? If you’re here, you’re engaged your voice is important. GRG needs your perspective in order to make politicians understand what We The People think and what we want from our elected officials.

Is this group still meeting?

We are. The team has small needs sporadically. I'm the pitch man and I've also been coming sporadically.
