The American Foundation for Good Government is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting civic engagement, government accountability, and an informed citizenry across the American Midwest.
We educate communities in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, and Wisconsin on the policy issues shaping their lives, encourage broad and meaningful participation in the democratic process, and advocate for transparent, responsive governance at the local, state, and federal levels.
Rooted in the civic traditions of America's heartland, we believe that strong communities and accountable government go hand in hand, and that every resident deserves a voice in the decisions that affect their future.
