http://www.culturalcreatives.org Site of Paul Ray and Sherry Anderson, whose research revealed that there is a subculture of nearly 50 million individuals in the US, who "care deeply about ecology and saving the planet, about relationships, peace, social justice, self-actualization, spirituality and self expression". This group embraces both personal development and community consciousness. He calls them (us) Cultural Creatives and notes that although there are a significant number of folks who share these values, we aren't aware of each other...yet. As our awareness grows, so will our influence on shaping society. Stop in to learn more.
