We value local living. Being geographically close is key to strengthening our community. Local living gives us the chance to get to know our community members, forge connections, and build a shared sense of purpose and ownership. 

Together, we work to find lasting solutions, addressing the root causes that impede a unified, flourishing community. We are not focused on short-term relief. By thinking innovatively, we build systems that foster stability for everyone, making our community and economy thrive. 

To strengthen our community for the long haul, we focus on a wide variety of areas that impact well-being. Together, we create an environment where people can thrive and equip them to live in social, emotional, mental, physical, and financial health for generations. 

We believe that each community member has value and the capacity to lead a healthy, sustainable life under the right conditions. Unfair economic and social systems have shut some people out of the opportunity to do so. To correct this and make our community more fair, we create pathways for all community members, especially those who have been shut out, to thrive and shape our shared future.
