Contra Costa County has a great deal of amazing smaller nonprofit organizations working towards social change and racial equity for low income and marginalized communities. Uplifting the voices of the black and brown communities and the organizations that serve them is crucial.

The focus will be on bringing these organizations together to address these main areas:

  • Policing policies and accountability 

  • Creating and sustaining culturally relevant events and programs for families and children through art and educational programs.

  • Teaching and cultivating grassroots organizing for low income communities to empower them to advocate for programs in schools and communities that promote racial and cultural sensitivity, diversity and inclusion.

Each participating organization brings an abundance of knowledge and strengths in specific areas, and when working together we hope to be able to provide the county a place to learn, ask for assistance and mobilize. 

Participating Organizations thus far:

The Miles Hall Foundation, Concord Community Alliance, Reimagine Antioch, Stop Cop Campus San Pablo and Lift up Contra Costa.
