structural harm for present and future generations. This has caused intentional fragmentation of systems and organizations which has restricted access to resources needed to address poverty, crime, food insecurity, unemployment, drugs, health disparities, etc.

    • Establish a community land trust
    • Health-conscious grocery stores
  • Youth empowerment & longitudinal jobs initiative
    • Establish a Bureau of Stewards

Desired Outcomes

  • Strengthened Community
  • Resilience and Leadership
