We’re fired up. The Harris-Walz ticket represents TWO care economy champions. There is incredible energy in this moment. November is ours to win or lose — but the work is far from done.
The change made possible by our movement last year set us up for this moment. It is where we ground ourselves, and how we know our North Star — a powerful movement that can abolish poverty in the United States — is more than a promise. We invite you to read our newly released 2023 Annual Report: The Future We Make, which begins with these words from our Co-Presidents:
“Friends,
The future is in our hands. If we’re organized, we can determine the direction of our country.
This report comes out in another immensely consequential election year, and we find ourselves again facing opponents who demonize racial, ethnic, gender, and other forms of diversity and stoke fear to advance an authoritarian agenda. At Community Change, our work is anchored not in fear, but in our vision of the future we want to build, one where our country’s promise of democracy is fulfilled, where marginalized communities step into their power, and where an accountable government plays a positive role in ensuring abundance, equity, and security for everyone.”
You can read the rest of their letter in the report, as well as highlights of our work in 2023 — including the backstory of our partner ISAIAH’s role in the “Minnesota Miracle” — which has positioned us to meet this moment.
