Founded in 2013 by Kelsey Wirth, Mothers Out Front uses a proven model of grassroots organizing to combat climate change. Unable to sit idly by while her daughters stood to inherit an increasingly poisoned planet, Wirth organized meetings in her home with other moms in her Massachusetts neighborhood.
What started there has grown into a 33,000-strong force, with more than 45 mother-led teams driving change in 10 states, and more states on the horizon. Able to reach everyday families who have the most at stake — the future of their children — the organization’s teams of moms have hit the pavement and achieved real wins.
Mothers Out Front has mobilized a national movement of women and families to demand bold action to tackle the climate crisis.
