Overview

Mission

We are a coalition of 17 faith congregations to empower our community through research, training, and direct action, to address root causes of poverty and injustice.

What it reported doing in 2025

Hosted 42 house meetings attended by approximately 400 people to build community power to address affordable housing problems and improve the civil citation program. These meetings resulted in a combined action meeting on May 6, 2025, of over 700 people to ask county commissioners to allocate parcels of surplus land to a community land trust. Then these parcels are available to be developed into affordable housing for residents living below 80% of area median income.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
