Co-creation allows us to leverage the wisdom each of us brings to solve our challenges together. Starting from a place of trust, adaptability, and creativity, we couple transformational vision with actionable support to operationalize efforts where communities have agency to inform the future.
We bring a clear point of view and experience stewarding community-led change across sectors by centering a commitment to dismantle structural racism and all forms of oppression. We co-create -- bridging perspectives to cultivate a collective vision of health.
​
WHY CO-CREATE?

ROOT SOLUTIONS WHERE EXPERTISE IS SITUATED AND WHERE INEQUITIES HAVE CAUSED HARM
Prioritize community-centered visions, equitable decision-making, participatory funding, and lifting up stories to propel further innovations in community-institution collaboration. Hold space to acknowledge and repair harm to open new ways to imagine a healthy future.
EQUITABLY LEVERAGE MULTISECTOR ASSETS AND LEADERSHIP
Design and refine processes and infrastructure to foster equitable cross-sector partnerships that embed community engagement, power-sharing, strategy co-creation, collaborative funding, ongoing learning, and sustainability. Resource, advocate and lead with community-centered approaches.
