GUIDING PRINCIPLES AND VALUES
- We value justice, where all people are treated fairly, with dignity, and have equality under the law.
- We value liberty, where all people have self-autonomy, freedom from suppression, and freedom to make their own choices.
- We value democracy, where all people have their voices heard and have the ability to meaningfully participate in decision-making.
- We believe in non-partisanship. Our work is guided by our values, not by political party or personality.
- We believe in centering the leadership and voices of impacted people.
- We believe in equity and inclusion. We build and sustain a culture of belonging as part of our work, and our work is guided by our belief in the inherent worth of all people.
- We believe in integrated advocacy. Our work is guided by the knowledge that achieving our mission requires us to use multiple tools, rather than relying on any one single tactic.
