About
WakeUP Wake County is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy organization that leads public engagement on housing, transportation, and environmental stewardship in the Triangle region of North Carolina.
WakeUP’s mission is to ensure healthy, equitable, and sustainable communities for all residents in the region by educating both citizens and policymakers about how the region should plan for growth, with a focus on social equity, environmental health, and economic viability.
Formed as a nonprofit grassroots collective in 2006, WakeUP has consistently been a leading voice representing citizens in land use issues like climate, transit, clean water, housing, and open space. The organization was created to respond to the complex benefits and challenges of rapid growth and development in Wake County and the wider Triangle Region of North Carolina. We are the only organization in the region that analyzes and acts on land use issues in the context of historic racial and socioeconomic inequities, while focusing on the changes we need so that all residents of our community thrive.
