Summary

Let's make a impact together.

What is a community land trust?

A Community Land Trust (CLT) is a nonprofit organization that acquires and holds land for the benefit of the community. It separates the ownership of land from the ownership of buildings on the land, ensuring that the land remains a shared community resource forever.

Atlas Defense

Board Member

Violence prevention trainings led by a a local small business offering superior service and personalized attention.  Atlas Defense takes seriously the idea We deserve to feel safe anywhere, and beyond self and home defense, also aims to empower community and workplace safety.  In particular, marginalized folx of all kinds have been intentionally overlooked and underserved by the toxic and pervasive self defense industry. Atlas Defense's training addresses that by intentionally working within the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ community to prepare for the modern threats we face.

Minneapolis Northside Mutual Aid

We are housed and unhoused neighbors supporting each other with masks, meals, heat, and hope during COVID-19 in North Minneapolis.

We support each other with masks, meals, heat, and hope as we work to build a future for North Minneapolis where all of us have the resources to not merely survive but have the most power possible over our own lives.

The most pressing need we're addressing is basic survival for those of us living in an encampment in a vacant lot in Near North (before its brutal eviction by hundreds of police and other agents of Minneapolis city government at a cost of, by their own estimation, at least $265,000); support continues to the Near North camp diaspora.
