About Us
Mission
EMPOWER SAN DIEGO advances progressive values and fosters local civil society by promoting civic participation and facilitating collaboration among community-based organizations. To realize our mission, we use public dialogue, voter education, leadership development, and coalition building.
Vision
We envision a sustainable, equitable and just society where all individuals and families have opportunities to thrive; communities are livable and accessible; government is transparent and accountable; and independent media flourishes.
Principles
We hold to a set of guiding principles that were laid out through a series of listening sessions with local progressive non-profits and community leaders in 2006 and 2007. While we are currently entering a new phase of strategic planning to update and hone our mission and vision statements, these principles remain steadfast.
