Mission

Not In Our Town (NIOT) is a movement to stop hate, address bullying, and build safe, inclusive communities for all. NIOT provides films, resources, and tools for action—both online and on-the-ground—to help local leaders build vibrant, diverse cities and towns, where everyone can participate. For 20 years, communities and schools across the U.S. and around the globe have turned NIOT's solutions-based stories into models for local change. NIOT has produced five acclaimed PBS documentaries, reaching millions of viewers through strategic partnerships with public media stations. On NIOT.org, over 100 short videos, designed to inspire action, have attracted more than one million views. NIOT connects an active network of more than 200 communities and schools who are working on the ground to address intolerance and bullying. Not In Our Town is the primary project of The Working Group, a non-profit media and community engagement organization based in Oakland, CA.
