YOU can join the march! Whether you can give two weeks or just an afternoon, every step matters.

If you can join for at least a week, apply here to be on the core march team. Food and housing will be provided for all week-long (and longer) participants.

If you’d like to join for a shorter stretch, subscribe to our newsletter to get updates on when and where to sign up for shorter periods*, single-day marches or local events.

*We intend to house and feed all multi-day marchers, but cannot guarantee extra support at this time.

No experience necessary. All you need is energy, curiosity and resilience. We will be traveling 8-12 miles a day on sidewalks and large shoulders. Nights will be spent in the communities we’re moving through – this can look like camping out with sleeping bags in a church rec room or even staying with host families.

If you are unable to walk long distances but would like to join the on-the-ground WAAM team, we need volunteers to help with the large meal preparation and vehicle support (and you'll be able to walk a bit, too!). Just as with our full-day walkers, food and housing will be provided to volunteers staying with the march for at least a week. The sign up link is even the same!

​

If you have first aid or medical experience, we would love to have you on our Street Medic Team. If you have peacekeeping or marshal experience, our Safety Team is the home for you!

We Are America is a peaceful, community-building movement, so children are welcome to participate. For the 2025 march, a handful of kids traveled with the WAAM team. There will be peaceful rallies, family picnics and lessons about the Constitution. Along the way, we’ll have lively music, arts and crafts, group meals and cooperative games.

Our march travels with a built-in safety net: pre-vetted routes, trained peacekeepers, and our Street Medic Team. Street medics—volunteers with advanced first-aid training—walk the route, treat blisters or heat stress on the spot, and coordinate in case of emergency. We brief all walkers each morning, share plans with local police/EMS, and partner with SMASH for extra medical gear. Every mile is managed to be as safe as it is inspiring.

We believe that mass, non-violent protests and rallies signal two things at once:

​

1. Capacity—the movement can mobilize people across regions and keep them coordinated.

2. Resolve—participants are willing to accept personal cost to defend democratic norms.

​​

When those signals reach civil servants, business leaders, and security forces, they recalculate loyalties, depriving would-be autocrats of the pillars they need to rule.

​

That is exactly the strategic value of events like the We Are America March. By bringing together ordinary people ready to walk 160 miles for democracy, we reassure one another that we are not alone, inspire others to join, and lay the groundwork for higher-impact actions—nationwide strikes, targeted consumer boycotts, and sustained civil disobedience—should they become necessary. Each public gathering strengthens the broad, non-violent coalition history tells us is capable of stopping an illegal seizure of power.

Absolutely!  We are all about visibility and inclusive messaging. We are a nonpartisan group and want to encourage people of all stripes to join as we march down your streets. By marching we aim to grow community not divide, and we hope our signs do the same. So sign away!  Write the letters big and readable from a distance. Make a sign you want to see in history books!

YES!! Bring one, bring many! Flags on poles, flag stickers, flag banners...let's reclaim the flag. With each step we take, we march to realize the founding promise of America.
