Your time and your energy are precious. Let's put them to the best possible use.

The Take Action Network was founded on the principle that you want to help improve the world, but your time and energy are limited. You want especially to work on the issues that matter most to you, and don't want to spend your efforts on actions and events that won't move the needle.

How it Works

Take Action Network automatically provides you with personalized actions and events matched to your interests, values, and abilities from trustworthy sources. All actions and events are categorized by issue, type of action, organization that hosts the action, time-duration, and location. These are matched to the details you provide in your profile, yielding highly relevant actions for you. You visit your dedicated action feed at any time and find the timeliest and most relevant actions for you.

Take Action Network personalizes the actions you view. When you provide your address where you are registered to vote, or your Legislative and Congressional Districts, it shows you who your elected officials are. This makes taking action quick and easy, as only actions relevant to your elected officials will be shown to you, and scripts are pre-filled with the correct information.

You also have the ability to create highly customized search alerts that deliver to your inbox actions each morning matching actions and events that were created the prior day.

What's in development

Over time as the system evolves, actions will provide more and more context so that you can tell how they fit into a larger strategy to accomplish long term objectives. There will still be a steady supply of reactionary actions in response to the issue of the day, but reaction only maintains the status quo, our job is to make things better.

Some actions will require a certain number of people to be effective. For example twenty calls to your state representative might not have an effect, but fifty or more would. We are working on "two step actions" that first ask to sign up for the action, given that a certain threshold is reached, and then trigger that action once enough people have committed.

The more groups and people participate on TAN, the more powerful it becomes
