Serve the leaders

These are the individuals who drive healing, justice and change in our communities every day. They expressed the need for curated community, tactical support, resources and avenues for collaboration to make a greater impact. We must meet these needs in an effective, accessible, sustainable, scalable and irresistible way. First, that looks like trust, relationships, and a community with shared values and goals. This also takes the form of practical support like coaching, mentorship, networking with opportunities, collaborators or funders. Finally, it includes community strategy sessions where we look at the state of our community, and map the ecosystem of opportunities for impact and collaboration.

Serve the seekers

Seekers are those actively looking for or engaged in healing, justice, and community. They express a need for safety, quality, consistency, containment and avenues for deepening their journey. We provide engaging opportunities for community building where those healers, practitioners and creatives named above can share their magic. This includes events for celebration and revival, and deeper programming like healing circles and opportunties for engaging in community service, mutual aid and reparations.

Serve Oakland and the East Bay

Oakland has a deep legacy of being the source of positive social change, but like many others, it faces unprecedented challenges. Oakland needs her healers and leaders to rise up, work through our divisions, and address local community challenges as a united front. Oakland needs safe spaces for grieving, truth and reconciliation, healing justice, collective reimagining, strategy and action. It needs the spiritual innovators to hold the space for healing and action, the seekers to participate and represent the community’s voice, and local leaders to show up, listen, and cooperate. Furthermore, we need the creatives to make the call, tell the story, and sing the song of a better tomorrow.

Serve for Society - Providing a Replicable Model

Multiple failing systems have pushed many people into an unprecedented age of isolation, division and collective overwhelm. Beloved Community is both the balm for the soul, and the platform for the change movements we need. Without community, our movements at best lack a beating heart and at worst are self destructive. While the local centers, religious institutions and other community platforms of the past have either been lost, or haven’t adapted to meet the needs of the day, our world needs new models for beloved community and sustainable movements for healing and social transformation. With Oakland and the East Bay as an inspirational example, the ultimate goal is to replicate this model nationally and globally - an internationally network embracing our planet, and carrying us into a future guided by love and liberaiton.
