We are everyday people who talk, act and
get things done on critical issues affecting everyday Iowans.
Issues like having a factory farm move in
next door, devaluing your property and ruining your quality of life;
or shady lenders that take advantage of families.
And we’re good at it. We fought for
and won Iowa’s first ever clean air standards for factory
farms. And over the past 3 years, members have helped families recover
over $5 million from shady lenders.
We have thousands of members across Iowa
from all walks of life – urban and rural, black and white,
immigrants and lifelong Iowans – and we’re working together
to get things done. CCI staff has over 100 years of combined experience.
They provide the training and expertise, but it’s our members
that provide the focus and the leadership and the power in numbers.
We are one of those unique organizations
that is truly by the people and for the people. We believe you don’t
have to stand by and just let things happen, which is probably why
we’re growing so much. Sign
