In 2019, we celebrated a decade. Our first ten years we focused on seed-planting — laying the groundwork for the organization we are becoming. We have been able to lay a foundation that now enables us to have a significant impact on culture shifts within the State of North Carolina and beyond.

As an organization, we are committed to leaning into our growing edges, and getting clearer about what is uniquely ours to do. We want to grow in the direction of our community’s needs. We are okay with evolving — we know that as the world changes, our vision and strategies will inevitably change alongside it.

We believe each person is capable of making significant, lasting change in the lives of people around them. As such, we empower people to be effective leaders in culture-shift, the process of changing culture (the outlook, attitudes, values, morals, goals, and customs shared by a society) away from oppression and towards liberation.
We collaborate with other social-justice organizations to advance the cause of justice, equality and protections for LGBTQ people and the marginalized, centering those who are BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, or People of Color), elder, and/or youth. We envision a world in which all people are able to reach their full potential as human beings, regardless of their varied identities.
We celebrate the fullness of our humanity by working intentionally at the intersections of race, sexual orientation, gender identity, faith, age and class.
