Purple America is a national initiative of Values-in-Action Foundation to re-focus the American conversation to a civil, productive and respectful dialogue around our American shared values.
Values-in-Action Foundation empowers students and adults to build communities of kindness, caring and respect through programs that teach, promote, and provide skills and tools to enable individuals to make positive values-based decisions every day.

The Purple Tent™
Election cycles deliberately emphasize and often exaggerate our differences without offering a comparable values discussion vital for a unified nation. These divisions make it harder and harder for Americans to come together to solve problems that seriously threaten our future.
As part of its work at the RNC Convention, Purple America pitched a 2,500-square-foot Purple Tent™.
The tent was the destination for media, delegates, bloggers, the community, celebrities and national thought leaders to have a continuous dialogue about “who we are” and “what we stand for”. Its purpose is to be a catalyst to further engage Americans in a conversation about civility and values through media, student engagement and more.
