Nuestra Voz
Nuestra Voz is grounded in our community organizing principles. We believe that in order to build people’s power, it is our responsibility to develop leaders who are directly impacted by any form of injustice.
We do this through:
People Power: We believe in building a large intergenerational membership base of working-class Latine immigrants, youth, women, families and queer folks who are the most directly impacted by injustice and they must lead their own liberation.
Transformational Leadership Development: Our responsibility is to transform our directly impacted members into skilled organizers and/or contributors to our ecosystem as we uplift them for who they truly are.
Direct Action Campaigns: We take on campaigns to change policies and practices in order to shift power and redistribute resources to improve the quality of life for working-class Latine immigrants, youth, women, families and queer folks throughout Metro-Denver area in Colorado, as we also contribute to state and national campaigns.
Movement Building: We stand in solidarity and build alliances with all oppressed people who are struggling to improve their lives, including organizations and unions, locally, nationally and around the world.
Creating Our Story: We create our own story by strengthening a vision of the world where our people and all oppressed groups belong: Where they deserve rights and the ability to thrive, are seen as humans with a voice, and shape the future.
