Our vision for change requires meeting the immediate needs of community members together with building and supporting grassroots participation and action on issues that will alleviate poverty and advance greater equity. The Equality Collective’s vision is to see thriving rural communities collectively participating in a just and caring society. The Equality Collective helps build a more just and caring society by advancing access to justice; building the capacity for collective participation and action and by being a research and learning institution to ensure broader impact.
