The InterValley Project (IVP) is a cooperative New England organizing network offering organizing training for leaders and organizers, on-the-ground support, mutual learning and a meeting ground for common campaigns for its 6 regional organizations. They are each made up of congregations, labor union locals, community and tenant groups that combine citizen organizing and democratic economic development strategies to save and create jobs, affordable housing and critical public services in some of the oldest and poorest industrial areas in the nation. The oldest IVP group was organized in 1983. The initial four IVP groups formalized their working relationship by creating IVP as a staffed network in 1997. IVP has helped organize four additional member groups since then. Membership in IVP provides each local organization with access to organizing, leadership and staff development, research, staff recruitment, and fund-raising expertise far beyond what is available at the local level alone. On behalf of its current member groups, IVP also actively develops new organizing and development strategies, as well as organizing new IVP member groups in New England.
