ACCOUNTABILITY

We are accountable for working with our local community.

We are deeply involved in unpaid, volunteer-based anti-oppression community work, and we believe that unpaid work in the community is required by anyone committed to dismantling exclusion and oppression of all kinds. We especially encourage people to engage in community work in partnership with marginalized groups to which they do not belong, so they can leverage their unique positions of power for social change while staying accountable to those directly impacted.

We are accountable for the quality of our work and its impact.

The quality of our training and consulting work relies on our advanced degrees in our fields and our experience as facilitators. Developing programs for organizational and institutional transformation requires an enormous amount of time, and impactful training is rarely designed with the attention it requires when it is not compensated. We acknowledge the uncomfortable contradiction that exists because paid anti-oppression work profits from systems of oppression, and yet we believe anyone who serves in this capacity should be fairly compensated in order to keep this work sustainable. 

We are accountable for the accessibility of inclusion training for all people.
-We seek to disrupt the the commodification of anti-oppression work by offering the lowest possible fees for training- you will not find more affordable training from credentialed experts in this field, and if you do, we'll match it!
- We offer an entirely free version of our training for community members.
- We have several training options ranging in price so that every organization or group can choose an option that works within their financial constraints.  
- We offer our training in a variety of modalities including entirely online, hybrid, and in-person, so that everyone with every ability and availability can participate.

We welcome conversations about our accountability and encourage anyone with concerns to reach out to us at [email protected]
