Vision

We envision a community where there is respect for differences, where self-determination is possible, and where all individuals have the confidence, stability, resilience, and resources to reach their highest potential. All basic needs are met. Decent, affordable housing, food, clothing, childcare, education, health care, employment, and recreation are abundant. There is creativity, group action, and joy. All people have hope for their own futures and for their children’s futures. The community is built upon the idea that everyone has enough information to make informed choices and hard decisions about the future; everyone has the opportunity to participate in shaping that future, channeling righteous anger at injustice into collective power and positive change.
