GRASSROOTS POWER
With every new member, our grassroots power and influence grows. We are passionately committed to building power in our communities by connecting our members.
We are member-led, which means that your concerns, hopes, and dreams for your community are our highest priority. It also means that we’re addressing deep, systemic injustice while supporting one another with our varied skills, resources, and knowledge.

What did Jesus’ life look like 2000+ years ago?
This book is an invitation to share in that curiosity about the historical Jesus, what his life was like 2,000+ years ago, what his community experienced, what his teachings meant, and, most importantly, what they can teach us about advancing justice in our neighborhoods and communities through a community organizing framework, grounded in a deeply rooted spiritual life.
