Positive Change!


Long Island, like our country at large, has been rapidly diversifying with newcomers of different faiths, nationalities, income-levels, sexualities and points of view. 

 

How can we support one another even as we come together from diverse points of view? What can we do locally to impact change without getting bogged down by the dispiriting headline of the day?

Long Island Together, based in Port Washington, NY, is a community of activists working together on issues of equity, access and social justice. Join us to make a difference!

Who We Are

 

Long Island Together is community of progressives who oppose social polarization and nativism. We seek to affirm diversity and protect vulnerable communities through inter-connected activism. We have broad concerns including issues impacting the environment, immigrants, people of different faiths, women, LGBTQ, racism, disability, social justice and peace.
