Our Why

We believe youth of color (and their families) should not be disproportionately burdened by systemic inequities. We will work individually, collectively and intergenerationally to redress this injustice. We ALL live better when we have equitable opportunities to thrive together.

Curiosity & Creativity

We think outside the box and challenge the status quo. We examine the distinction between truth and reality while practicing radical acceptance. We take leaps of faith. New voices and ideas are always welcome, as we are not afraid to push ourselves out of our comfort zone if doing so can solve problems or further our mission.

  • Think outside the box.
  • Challenge status quo.
  • Embrace new ideas for different results.

Authenticity & Transformative Healing

We believe in living life honestly and courageously. We recognize we all have strengths and vulnerabilities, and that in leaning into transformative growth opportunities we will all fall short of our best sometimes; yet, there is value in recognizing individuals’ strengths and vulnerabilities, as it is only through being one’s true self that one can be their best self. As an organization, we are committed to building a culture that supports authenticity and transformative growth so that, together, we can identify opportunities to better ourselves, our networks and our community in which we reside. We believe that acknowledging and working to heal generational trauma is key to unlocking our true potential, individually and collectively.

  • Live honestly and courageously.
  • Embrace strengths and vulnerabilities.
  • Support transformative growth.
  • Heal generational trauma.
  • Build communities of belonging.

Ubuntu

Ubuntu, rooted in humanist African philosophy, means, “I am, because you are.” We depend on connection, community, and caring — we cannot exist without each other. We depend on connection, community, and caring — we cannot exist without each other.

  • Connection and community.
  • Individual and collective growth.

Shared Leadership

We are committed to shared responsibility and accountability, we value collaborative decision-making, trust, and providing a safe space for ideas. We support individual and collective growth.

  • Shared responsibility & accountability.
  • Collaborative decision-making.
  • Trust and safe space.

Equity

We believe every person should be treated fairly and justly and have access to the resources and opportunities needed to become their best selves, regardless of their identity. We value all individuals and their experiences and believe that we are here to learn from and teach each other.

  • Fair & just treatment for all.
  • Access to resources & opportunities.
  • Value individual experiences.
  • Commitment to reciprocal learning.
