Mission Statement
The Hogan’s Alley Society’s mission is to advance the social, political, economic and cultural well-being of people of African descent (Black people) through the delivery of inclusive housing, built spaces, and culturally informed programming and operations.
About This Cause
The Hogan’s Alley Society (HAS) is a non-profit organization composed of civil rights activists, business professionals, community organizations, artists, writers and academics committed to daylighting the presence of Black history in Vancouver and throughout British Columbia. HAS adopts a research driven approach to community development that seeks to preserve and promote the historical, cultural, societal and economic contributions made by Black Settlers and their descendants to Vancouver, Greater Vancouver, the Province of British Columbia, the Pacific Northwest and Canada. With this history in the archives, HAS is in process of developing partnerships with local government and business interests to acquire and develop land and operate assets as a community land trust. Strategic Priorities 1. Realizing the vision created by the Hogan’s Alley Working Group by owning and operating the built environment on the historic site of Black Canadians in Vancouver. 2. Convening, cultivating, sustaining African diaspora / descent culture. Creating economic, political, social, cultural assets for people of African Descent. Constructing spaces that promote intergenerational linkages through community and affordability. 3. Building the capacity of racialized and marginalized communities to participate in city building.
