PODER!

The mission of People Organizing to Demand Environmental and Economic Justice (PODER) is to organize with Latinx immigrant families and youth to put into practice people-powered solutions that are locally based, community led and environmentally just. We nurture everyday people’s leadership, regenerate culture, and build community power. Our vision is a society where everyday people can shape their neighborhoods and economies. We organize with Latinx immigrant families, along with other low-income communities of color, to cultivate community rooted solutions that create a society where immigrant rights, social, racial, economic, and environmental justice are central to the world in which we live.
