Project Description

Funding will add 30 participants and 2-3 public presentations.

Organization Summary

Our activities are divided into seven program areas – Food Sovereignty, Care and Wellness, Education, Economic Democracy, Equitable Housing, Arts and Culture, and Disaster Preparedness and Resilience. Each program area is divided into various projects, with each project strategically oriented to meet basic human needs and honor basic human rights. We provide Humboldt County’s working-class, poor, and underserved people with opportunities for leadership, cultural development, and meaningful employment.

Our grassroots projects are demonstrations of what is possible when we approach social change from the perspective of solidarity economics. We leverage the power of those demonstrations to energize and coordinate a movement that brings together our community’s most powerful nonprofit organizations, tribes, municipalities, and people, to build the broader policy framework necessary for substantive economic and social transformation to an economic system in which everyone has their needs met in a way that does not exploit anyone or harm the environment.
