The Astraea Foundation for Justice, together with Carre d’artistes Philadelphia, is hosting a gathering on Thursday, January 19, 2017, from 5:00-7:00 pm, and we want to see you there! Come hear Director of Programs, Sarah Gunther, and others share about how we can build community in light of the current political climate and learn about Astraea’s work, priorities, and strategies as we lean into 2017.

Black and Brown Workers Cooperative

The mission of the Black and Brown Workers Cooperative is to fight for the social and economic liberation of the black and brown LGBTQIA worker.

The mission of the Black and Brown Workers Cooperative is to fight for the social and economic liberation of the black and brown LGBTQIA worker. They were birthed out of the HIV/AIDS non-profit sector as a result of injustices such as hiring and firing practices, recruitment strategies, salary distribution, and professional investment happening within a vacuum, while simultaneously marginalizing those black and brown LGBTQIA people who they profess to serve.

This organization is supported through the Funding Queerly Giving Circle, which is housed at Astraea.
