Community Organizations I Support Frances'Blog - Reflections on Society
I work with organizations that are moving forward toward a future that allows people to live with freedom, justice, equality, and to work together towards a sustainable world for our children and for all life on earth. They promote solutions that address the moral imperatives of our day (climate change, right relations with First Nations and the earth) using innovative social processes to build the solutions together.
