The Common Ground Backstory

Across our communities, people are looking for something simple but powerful — connection.

The Common Ground Consortium (501c3) was created to bring people together through edutainment, cultural mentorship, collaboration, and shared experiences.

Our mission is to create spaces where individuals from all backgrounds can connect, learn from one another, and find common ground.

This spring, we are launching one of our most exciting initiatives yet:
