Builders Network

Builders Movement runs programs that aim to replace "us vs. them" thinking with problem-solving across political divides. Its offerings include Builders Media content, a Builders Toolkit of educational resources, and Citizen Solutions, a process that convenes people with differing views to propose solutions to issues in their home states. It also runs the Builders Crash Course, a pilot training program for students on campus polarization. Its sister organization, Builders Bloc, works on citizen-led solutions and holding elected officials accountable.

The audience is primarily Americans who sign up for its newsletter, text updates and campaigns, as well as students and citizens in states where Citizen Solutions sessions take place. Citizen Solutions was piloted in Tennessee and Wisconsin, with next sessions planned in Texas. The organization is co-led by more than 300 Movement Partners from business, media, faith, sports, academia and public service.

The team is distributed and hiring remotely in the US for roles including an Executive Director based in Texas, a Director of Digital Strategy and a Director of Communications & Editorial Strategy. The Builders Media work has received an Anthem Award and a Shorty Impact Award, and Citizen Solutions was a Fast Company World Changing Ideas finalist.
