Building Power for Communities of Color advances policies in Oregon that have the best potential to improve outcomes for communities of color. 

In order to achieve our shared policy goals, we are committed to:

• Building the capacity of communities and organizations of color to successfully advance policy agendas;

• Reforming policy practices to ensure authentic community engagement of the communities most directly impacted by policy change;

• Shifting discourses to centralize the voices of communities of color in policy conversations; and

• Building partnerships and coalitions with allied individuals and organizations.

Together we can create a policy environment that supports all Oregonians.
