The Democracy Collaborative’s work is as essential today as it was when Gar Alperovitz and I founded it 22 years ago as an academic research center at the University of Maryland, College Park. Both Gar and I are immensely proud of TDC’s accomplishments and enthusiastic about its future as we turn the organization over to a new generation of brilliant, talented leaders who are poised and ready to take TDC into an exciting new phase of its work. We know that TDC’s brightest days are ahead.
