In Oakland and San Francisco we’re challenging displacement and gentrification by growing coalitions and campaigns that confront corporate development with strategic community demands that serve the people.
A society organized in support of human development ensures that all people, regardless of immigration status, have a right to work and live with dignity, respect and without fear. We envision a world without deportation or violence and we provide a framework from which our members organize, advocate, agitate and educate.
We invest in the leadership of working class Black and Latino families to build the community power that will ensure long-term economic, racial and gender equity. We create spaces for our members to learn with each other and build relationships, to step forward as protagonists and voice their experiences and visions.
