About This Cause
We believe that meaningful social change can only happen when directly impacted communities organize and shift power. In order for Florida to move closer to this goal, the base-building ecosystem needs access to high-quality, dedicated legal and policy support to bring their demands to fruition, and defensive legal support to ensure they can continue to push towards a more visionary future. From young people fighting against police brutality and mass incarceration, to workers fighting for living wages; to displaced residents in fighting for access to dignified housing and relief post disaster; to renters and mobile home owners fighting for basic rights as tenants; or Black and Latinx communities fighting gentrification and cultural erasure, we offer support to people who come together organically for the sake of a better Florida. We use a variety of tools, from Litigation to Grassroots Policy Advocacy, Research and Narrative Shaping; Arts integrations (including an Artist-in-Residence program); Capacity Building work in service to developing that movement organizations and organizers that are critical to our evolving ecosystem, and Strategy Support.
