Coalition partners

Partner groups will appear here as they sign on. We are building a coalition, not a competitor, and every group keeps its own name, meetings, and members.

A home for the work

Our long-term goal is a permanent home in the Charlotte area, with room to meet, learn, and serve. We will build it only when our community can sustain it: when giving covers the operating costs and people keep showing up.
