MI COMUNIDAD

Equitas means justice, equity, and fairness. We are not passive observers of injustice, and instead seek to help ourselves and our younger generations acquire the knowledge and skill sets to eliminate injustice. Comunidad means community, a group of people living in the same place or having a particular characteristic in common. We aim to foster this feeling of fellowship with others, in order to embark on collective effort toward disrupting injustice that will shake systems in necessary ways.

Each community hub below provides resources for our alumni who identify with and/or want to be an active ally for the community featured. We aim to feature ongoing, youth-led efforts and resources for us all to engage with.
