OUR STRATEGIES

We build power for racial, economic, and health justice for children and families in Contra Costa County through resident leadership, community organizing, and policy advocacy. 

We support resident leadership through political education, coaching, and collective action. We build a diverse base of youth, parents, and seniors to lead.
