At NIOT.org, we are committed to mapping out locations where hate occurs and where communities or towns are actively working to become more inclusive. In addition to incidents of both hate and resilience, the map also highlights anti-hate groups, NIOT film subjects, and school efforts against bullying.
Mapping out groups that strengthen their towns or schools against intolerance highlight the positive work that they are doing.
Here are some of the latest groups working toward building safe, inclusive communities who are standing up to hate in their towns and cities.

We asked people from across the country to talk about why they're part of Not In Our Town. These moving stories about the the need to stand together to stop hate remind us why we are doing this work. If we want to build safe and inclusive communities for all, it requires action. Please watch this video, see why it matters, and support Not In Our Town. Thank you.
