PODER - San Francisco

Founded in 1991, People Organizing to Demand Environmental and Economic Rights (PODER), has organized with low-income Latinx immigrant families to create local solutions to the environmental and economic inequities faced in San Francisco’s Mission, Excelsior and other southeast San Francisco neighborhoods. PODER organizes with Latinx immigrant families and other low-income communities of color to cultivate community rooted solutions that create a society that holds immigrant rights, social, racial, economic, and environmental justice are at its center.
