Our Story
So… How do we make North Carolina home for all and foster trust in our elected officials?
We build a narrative on protecting our freedoms, leading with compassion, promoting safety, and striving for unity
We build a narrative around the following:
Protecting our freedoms
Freedom to love
Freedom to vote in fair elections
Freedom to start a family when we are ready
Freedom to learn in diverse schools about an array of topics
Freedom to be our authentic selves that are not confined to gender binaries
Freedom to take sick days to take care for ourselves and our families
Freedom to live in safe and welcoming communities
Leading with compassion
Treating others the way we want to be treated
Understanding that no matter our difference, most of us hold the same simple values and dreams
Promoting safety
Investing in mental health resources
Pushing for commonsense gun safety legislation that will reduce violence and trauma in our communities
Protecting Black and Brown communities from the targeted violence of local police departments and sheriffs
Striving for unity
Advocating for a high-quality job market where every person has time to take care of themselves and their families
Providing access to high-quality healthcare for urban and rural communities alike
Investing in our public schools where our children have the opportunities to learn about the past, present, and future
