In an era of income inequality, environmental degradation, and racism, our chapters in Lynn, Worcester, Springfield, and Holyoke are building the power to confront this triple crisis in Massachusetts. We fill the ballot box with our votes.  We fill the streets with our voices. We seed the new alternatives that put power and decision-making in the hands of those directly affected.  We know that a better world is possible and that we are the ones who will build it.

Campaigns

We also show up for Black Lives Matter, the Fight for $15, and other movements on the path to liberation.

Victories: What We’ve Won

Our Theory of Change

n2n-toc-graphic-2

We view our society as a tree, rooted in particular values and beliefs. Out of those roots grow systems, such as our government and our economy (the trunk), whose policies and programs (the branches) yield the reality of everyday life in our communities (the fruits).

If we are to change our lives, we must change our society, from the roots up. We seed the powerful values of love, gratitude, imagination, courage, solidarity, abundance, and integrity through our chapters and our campaigns, transforming our government and our economy to remake reality in our communities.
