Advocacy
We forge connections with our community that will pioneer new BIPOC leaders to shape the future and legacy of our vibrantly diverse residents.
-
Affordable Housing
We provide support for systems, policies, and funding needed to bring affordable housing options to Black and Brown residents of Skyway.
-
Economic Growth
We counter gentrification in Skyway by working with our BIPOC community to accelerate small business development, provide access to job training, and build community wealth.
In all things we do, we are guided by our values:
Community

Duwamish Land Acknowledgement
We make space and take time to acknowledge the importance of honoring the land. Skyway is on the unceded, stolen land of the Duwamish people. We build from acknowledgment to establish active support.
