ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge: The ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge, part of the nonprofit organization Civic Nation, encourages colleges and universities to help increase democratic participation among their students.

TCC's ALL IN Challenge Action Plan: Faculty and staff from all over our District have worked together to create an action plan for our participation in the ALL IN Challenge.

Democracy Commitment Initiative for Community Colleges: The Democracy Commitment (TDC) is dedicated to the advancement of civic learning and engagement at community colleges. This initiative ensures that millions of community college students graduate with an education in democracy and civic responsibility.

Ask Every Student: The Ask Every Student initiative believes full student-voter participation can happen by integrating person-to-person voter registration into existing processes, such as orientation or classes that reach all students. TCC faculty and staff have joined the initiative to help students one-on-one with their democratic engagement plan.
