2023 Priorities

We use a participatory member-driven approach to set our organizational priorities: our bi-ennial Member Survey tells us what issues are most important to members and provides feedback to our Steering Committee, which then finalizes the priorities. Our Values and Commitment call us to use an intersectional racial equity lens on every issue, in all of our work.

Showing Up for Racial Justice Committee

We partner with leaders of groups targeted by racism to identify and support Spokane campaigns and needs. We also work to educate white people on the role of white supremacy and/or privilege in maintaining racist systems and on the potential new role in dismantling them.

Peace and Justice Action Committee

We have a commitment to develop our stand for peace and to redefine our international peace and human rights work in the context of recent volatile escalation of militarism, anti-Muslim bigotry, racism and anti-Semitism. Our Peace and Justice Action Committee focuses on this commitment.
