Safe Places for the Advancement of Community and Equity

SPACEs works with individual leaders and organizations to achieve the following:

Bridge the gap between vision and impact. We use community organizing, facilitation, service delivery, coaching/training and dialogue to bridge the gap between what leaders and communities envision and what they actually achieve.

Take care of people who take care of people. We use monthly retreats (also called “circles” or “spaces”) to engage local leaders in the important work of reflection, relationship cultivation and rejuvenation. Monthly retreats allow leaders to engage work to transform inequitable systems and structures in deeper (and more healthy) ways.
