Our network envisions a healthy multiracial democracy where everyone is free and able to live in their full dignity. In this world, our people have agency and the resources they need to live and thrive.
It is our commitment to make sure we are modeling the values we’re fighting for in the outside world, within our own network. This starts with how we treat one another, how we learn together, and how we engage around topics about freedom and liberation.
Extending Grace embodies the spirit of empathy and compassion that guides our organizational culture. It compels us to recognize the humanity in each person, encouraging us to approach every interaction with empathy and an open mind, free from assumptions. We grow in grace when we treat others with dignity, kindness, and courtesy.
We build our collective impact through authentic relationships. These relationships are characterized by transparency, mutual respect, active engagement, openness to feedback, and a genuine curiosity about the motivations and aspirations of our colleagues and partners.
A sustainable work culture is an organizational environment that prioritizes accessibility, is pro-Black, pro-worker, pro-TLGBQIA, and fosters long-term employee engagement, productivity, and well-being while promoting the organization’s growth and success.
Integrity means acting with agency and emotional intelligence to protect State Voices, our table partners, and your colleagues. It means responsibly and transparently sharing information to empower our colleagues within the constraints of their roles, organizational expectations, and applicable laws.
At the core of State Voices’ sustainable work culture is a commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility. We are dedicated to creating an environment where everyone, regardless of race, gender, age, religion, background, or sexual orientation, can thrive and contribute.
Accountability means owning one’s contributions and outcomes, understanding the implications of not aligning with our shared values, and committing to personal and organizational growth rather than mere compliance or avoidance of consequences.
Collective impact is the culmination of our shared efforts, where the sum of our actions leads to significant, sustainable changes within the communities we serve and beyond.
