We are friends and neighbors.
While we are very focused on connecting residents to resources, we are not a nonprofit organization.
Although our shared values often result in collectively supporting a local candidate, we are not a political action committee.
We acknowledge that certain aspects of how our city is run have room for improvement.
This acknowledgement has resulted in criticism from those who feel uncomfortable with change, often because the status quo benefits them directly.
Please keep reading if you’re interested in understanding the nature of our shared work.
