AMOS is a non-profit community organization in central Iowa made up of
32 diverse members. AMOS pursues an agenda with multiple issues and
responds to the concerns and pressures people feel. These concerns and
pressures are identified through hundreds of small-group conversations, and are
then explored in depth by investigative issue teams who research the facts and
develop possible solutions to the problems. AMOS then acts publicly, bringing the
power of organized people to decision-makers to implement the AMOS agenda.
Through this three-step process, hundreds of people re-enter public life and
reclaim responsibility for their future in central Iowa.
