The Institute for Local Self-Reliance

The Institute for Local Self-Reliance

The Institute for Local Self-Reliance envisions communities that are vibrant, diverse, and fair. To achieve this goal, we empower local voices to stand against corporate dominance. As a national research and advocacy group, we collaborate with partners nationwide to promote an economy that prioritizes local needs and is accountable to both people and the environment. Local self-reliance means individuals can take charge of their lives, including how they support their families, manage community resources, and influence decisions made by government and businesses that affect us all. We understand that one of the greatest challenges facing the U.S. today is the overwhelming power of corporations, which weakens community influence and threatens the foundations of our democracy and local economies. We believe that fostering local self-reliance is the most effective way to address these issues. Whether it's pushing back against the immense power of monopolies like Amazon, ensuring everyone has access to quality local broadband, or advocating for the retention of locally-generated renewable energy, ILSR champions solutions that empower citizens and strengthen communities.
