CivicSpace is a free open-source software platform for grassroots
organizing and civic activity. It allows individuals and organizations
to build online communities that communicate effectively, act
collectively, and coordinate coherently with a network of other related
organizations and communities.
CivicSpace is being built with the needs of distributed organizations
in mind. It will give you and the supporters within your community a
solid framework for organizing and engaging those around you in action
and allows you to plug your community into a network of other
communities where you can share your ideas, knowledge, relationships,
and organizational information. CivicSpace includes tools for managing
content on your website, organizing events, and organizing membership
with CiviCRM, a fully integrated Constituent Relationship Management
system.
CivicSpace has a flexible and powerful CMS capable of running all kinds
of websites. It comes with a WYSIWIG editor and it is extremely simple
to learn how to update and submit content on your site. A selection of
sample themes are included with CivicSpace and the theming system gives
you complete control over the appearance and layout of your website.
