Movement Mapping Initiative

A living, data-driven map of the progressive ecosystem — closing gaps, aligning impact, and rebuilding the institutional memory the movement lost.

We have built collaborative infrastructure for communications, for donors, for data and for issues. But we have never built collaborative infrastructure for people. GAIN Power exists to fill that gap.

THE CASE

The Case for Movement Mapping

In 2024, while conservatives systematically exploited new FEC rulings to create unprecedented coordination between billionaire-funded Super PACs and campaigns, progressives remained trapped in organizational silos — tripping over each other, bumping into each other, wasting resources. The Atlas Project (2007–2018) provided institutional memory for progressives, with $2.8M+ in client work for major Democratic entities. When it disbanded in 2018, this coordination infrastructure vanished just as conservatives began exploiting new legal loopholes.

GAIN Power operates across the entire progressive ecosystem and stands uniquely positioned to address this coordination deficit — not through direct campaign coordination (which remains legally complex), but through comprehensive ecosystem mapping and strategic planning that transcends traditional organizational boundaries.
