Mission and Vision
Mission | Vision | How We Work
To accomplish our mission, we will:
- Continue to expand leadership development for low-income North Carolinians
- Promote communication, education, coalition building, and collaboration with like-minded organizations and individuals across the state
- Continue to influence public policy and decision makers at the local, state, and national level
A NC dedicated to the health and well-being of all its people, where everyone has access to:
- Quality, affordable universal health care
- Voting rights and campaign finance reform
- Fair taxation
- Decent affordable housing
- Public transportation
- A safe and healthy environment
- Fair public policies
- A voice in the decisions that affect their lives
We believe the best way to work for our goals is to work on specific issues identified by
people within their own communities.
This is reflected in our:
- Primary constituency
- Decision-making structures
- Geographic locations and scope
- Other key components
- Measures of success
