Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide resources to support grassroots organizers from Black, Indigenous and people of color communities with tools for community-led investments, resources and infrastructure at the local level that create more opportunity for our communities to thrive and be safe.

As the federal government makes these resources available, local governments are spending pertinent rescue dollars on courts and police that criminalize and punish communities that are already over-policed, prosecuted and harmed by the violence of poverty.

Rather than investing in ineffective systems that require an obscene and unsustainable amount of resources, we must invest in networks and infrastructure that build safer, healthier communities.

Our goal is to provide resources that help us advocate for the spending and investments we truly need to live safer, healthier, sustainable lives together.
