Our programs exist to meet immediate needs and to transform the conditions that create them.
Food Sovereignty & Land Stewardship
Through our food and land sovereignty programs, we seek to reclaim our ancestral connection to the earth, allowing our community to experience true self-determination and freedom. We strive to thrive, not just survive.
We acknowledge the systemic roots of food insecurity and displacement. Even environmental challenges bring enormous social impacts due to institutional racism and corporate control over natural resources. Addressing food and land rights means acknowledging our community's everyday experiences and the historical injustices they face. Our mission is dual: address immediate nutritional needs and foster grassroots leadership for enduring ecological and structural change.
Health & Wellness
Through our health and wellness programs, we seek to achieve true community bienestar, allowing our community to experience true wellness and freedom. We strive to thrive, not just survive.
We acknowledge the social roots of most community challenges. Even non-social factors, like COVID-19, bring enormous social impacts due to institutional racism. Addressing health conditions means acknowledging our community's everyday experiences and the systemic issues they face. Our mission is dual: address immediate needs and foster leadership for enduring change.
Community Power & Shared Leadership
Through our community power and shared leadership programs, we seek to cultivate collective strength and horizontal leadership, allowing our community to experience true self-determination and freedom. We strive to thrive, not just survive.
We acknowledge the systemic roots of political disenfranchisement and the hoarding of power. Even daily municipal and economic challenges bring enormous social impacts due to institutional racism and exclusionary governance. Addressing community power means acknowledging our community's everyday experiences and the systemic barriers that try to keep them isolated. Our mission is dual: distribute immediate agency across the many to navigate crises together, and foster grassroots activist leadership to build an unbreakable foundation for enduring structural change.
