About the Oklahoma Democratic Party

Our Theory of Change

As Democrats we believe change happens when we work together, across differences, to create a shared vision for a better future and then actively work towards making that vision a reality.

• Our theory of change is grounded in the belief that systemic change requires addressing root causes and engaging in intersectional work that tackles issues of equity and justice across a variety of domains.

• We believe meaningful change comes from building relationships and engaging in community organizing and advocacy efforts that center the voices of those most impacted by the issues we seek to address.

  Our Young Democrats of Oklahoma worked with advocates across the state to successfully petition the state government to stop Julius Jones' execution.

• We recognize change is not linear. Setbacks and challenges are inevitable, but we are committed to persevering and adapting our approach as needed to achieve our goals.

• We believe there is room for each and every one of us to help create change. We are committed to providing education, training, and support to empower our members to become effective advocates for justice and equity in their communities.
