Our Mission MCF supports leaders who work to shift the balance of power in their communities toward working people and families, and who have the vision and capacity for building a truly representative economy. https://answertheuprising.org Our Vision We imagine a world where our democracy and economy truly represent the contributions, dreams, and desires of communities that have been historically excluded from sharing in the resources and benefits of society. People should be more than just represented in our democracy and economy—their representation must include their ability to shape them. Our Values Belonging & Representation We are intentional and vigilant in identifying and undoing racism and white supremacy on every level in order to create an environment where acceptance, dignity, and justice are experienced by all. Trust We show and earn trust through honesty, transparency, and being responsible for our actions, words, attitudes, and follow-through. Mutual Respect We recognize the inherent value of people and relationships. We are direct, clear, and timely in our communication and treat everyone with care and humility.
