Common Ground Committee

Common Ground Committee (CGC) is a nonpartisan, citizen-led organization based in Wilton, Connecticut. With a team of 2 employees, CGC focuses on fostering constructive dialogue and understanding on divisive issues. CGC's primary work involves organizing public forums that bring together influential individuals with differing viewpoints. These forums aim to facilitate productive discussions and identify areas of common ground. The organization has hosted 14 forums since its inception in 2009, featuring prominent figures from diverse backgrounds and political affiliations. Beyond its forums, CGC produces the "Let's Find Common Ground" podcast series and maintains the Common Ground Scorecard. The podcast series delves into topics of national importance, while the scorecard evaluates politicians and candidates based on their potential to bridge partisan divides. CGC's initiatives are guided by a commitment to unbiased and transparent discourse, free from political agendas or financial influence.
