Partner With Us
TMC equips social movement leaders to build more resilient organizations.
We provide the support leaders need today and tools they can use forever.
Building Resilient Organizations
Even under the best conditions, leading is hard. But now? The pressure is immense.
Pro-democracy and social justice movements face increasing funding cuts, legal and political attacks, and state-sanctioned violence—with dire consequences for public health, marginalized communities, and our democracy.
To weather these storms, we need even more resilient leaders and organizations. That’s where we excel.
We equip leaders with the tools and mindsets they need to manage uncertainty, create sustainable movements, and build infrastructure.
Since 2026, we’ve supported more than 12,000 organizations across the United States, and trained nearly 150,000 leaders, strengthening teams and sectors.
By linking arms with funders and intermediaries, we provide transformative support to movement leaders who are protecting democracy, immigrant rights, reproductive justice, LGBTQ rights, climate justice, and more.

“[TMC] helped me stay centered and steady at a moment when heightened immigration enforcement was deeply impacting our communities and weighing heavily on our team. I was able to hold the big picture, lead with clarity, and focus on advancing our mission with strength and purpose.”
