Progressive Leadership Alliance Of Nevada

What Progressive Leadership Alliance Of Nevada does

The Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada (PLAN), founded in 1994, is a 501c3 nonprofit coalition of nearly 40 member organizations operating across Reno, Carson City, and Las Vegas. PLAN organizes with front-line communities and directly impacted leaders to advance policy outcomes on housing justice, environmental justice, immigration rights, civic engagement, corporate accountability, and Indigenous rights in Nevada. Its core service portfolio includes the DOJ-Recognized and OLAP-Accredited Citizenship & Immigration Program (PLANcIP) providing direct immigration services in Northern Nevada; a Housing Justice Campaign focused on rent stabilization, tenant protections, and eviction reform; an Environmental Justice Program addressing nuclear waste, water rights, mining accountability, and climate policy; a Civic Engagement & Voter Education initiative (including Vote 2026); and legislative advocacy during Nevada sessions. The organization also maintains a digital library of policy research reports and briefs.

PLAN operates a community-led go-to-market model. Its revenue model is donations-based, accepting individual contributions through a website platform with preset recurring monthly tiers ($10, $25, $50, $75, $100) and custom amounts processed via credit card, eCheck, PayPal, or bank account, with no commercial pricing model. Donations are complemented by likely foundation grants (not disclosed in input). Distribution channels are the two physical offices in Reno and Las Vegas for direct services, supplemented by digital organizing through email newsletter, social media (Facebook, Twitter), the Mobilize.us volunteer platform, and community events including voter registration drives and candidate meet-and-greets. The organization runs on standard web and communications technology with no proprietary technology stack, APIs, or software products. Leadership is provided by Executive Director Laura Martin (the first woman and first Black person to lead PLAN, appointed in 2021), with a small core staff of approximately 9-10 people plus coordinators and a Climate Equity Policy Fellow.
