Our values

We are responsible for tending to our own humanity

We connect with our history, we own our flaws, we unearth our shame, we evolve our biases, and we deepen our understanding of ourselves.

Communities are woven of intentional relationships

We hold each other accountable with care. We get curious about each other. We celebrate diversity and build belonging. We embrace each others’ complexity.

Leadership and learning are inseparable

We invest in people’s development with love and limits. We seek out opportunities to learn and grow. We see everyone as having agency, responsibility, and opportunity.

We reimagine systems of power

We shift power, access, and resources to those most impacted by systemic oppression. We dare to dream of a fundamentally different future.
