We are dedicated to creating a vibrant and harmonious community that honors diversity, strengthens cultural traditions, and seeks and celebrates common ground.

We commit to communicating in a constructive way that serves the common good of the community.

I agree to honor this intent

We are a community that moves in solidarity while celebrating the diverse nature of our eco-system. We support working towards a world free of discrimination. This includes, but is not limited to, discrimination based on race, ethnicity, class, sex, gender, size, sexuality, physical or mental ability, appearance, and social standing. We take deep responsibility for how we attend to privilege and bias within this unjust ecology and move in solidarity to center the experiences of those who are most marginalized among us, specifically people of the global majority, Black, Asian, Brown, Indigenous, Latinx, and people of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.
