Every individual has power, and we have more power together.
Organizing is the heart of all we do.
Membership is ownership of our collective work.
We activate communities to take action.
Our members are experts in their lives.
Our communities won’t be stopped by barriers, voter suppression, or attempts to take away our vote. We educate, register, and mobilize voters as one key way of holding politicians accountable and making our voices heard.
We want a regenerative future and a just transition that puts frontline communities at the center of energy policy, disaster response, food policy, and all climate change initiatives.
Housing is a human right not a profit tool for greedy landlords. We fight for safe affordable homes, rent control, and development that doesn’t displace us.
We fight back against policies and practices that seek to control and restrict women and femmes’ bodies and the resources that serve us.
Change is better when you’re a part of making it happen. Learn how to organize alongside friends, neighbors, and others across the state and guide the future of Florida Rising.
A prison and police-only approach does the opposite of creating real safety in our communities. We work to end mass incarceration, defend immigrants, and eliminate laws that take away the vote from people with felony convictions.
