Annual reports highlight our accomplishments in the following areas:

* Building strategic capacity
* Issue campaign highlights
* Involving people in the organizing who are directly affected by the issues
* Leadership development
* Awards
* VOP by the numbers

Of course, all of these elements are interwoven: increased capacity leads to getting more people active, and leadership training results in more campaign successes. While key metrics are listed at the end of the report, the changes people experience while coming together with others to improve life in their communities is immeasurable.
