  • About Us

    Together, we are working toward a racially just community where all people have homes, students graduate and families are financially stable.

    We work to accomplish this in two key ways: transforming systems and meeting immediate needs.

    When we examine the needs across King County, the disparities are clear: Black, Indigenous and other people of color disproportionately experience poverty, homelessness and lack of educational opportunity. We work actively with the communities we serve to change the systems that continue to create these disparate needs.

    Together, we are advocating for policies that promote our community’s ability to thrive, especially our Black, Indigenous and other communities of color. We know that change has to be driven by listening to the needs and solutions identified by the people closest to the issues.
