Vision
We envision ourselves as a diverse and spiritually grounded organization that empowers people to work towards a just world in which all people thrive. Our vision is inspired by our commitment to each other and to the interdependent web of life of which we are all a part.
Mission
We strive to inspire, educate, empower, and nurture the capacity of Unitarian Universalists (UUs), as well as our community allies, to collaboratively advocate for and undertake social and environmental justice initiatives. We support legislative change that aligns with our UU values in Washington state and beyond.
Covenant
In affirming our adherence to our UU Principles and our connection and dedication to each other and to the world around us, we commit ourselves as individuals and as an organization to the intersecting responsibilities of caring for the Earth and seeking justice and equity for all. We commit ourselves with an awareness of how the abuses of all forms of creation inevitably cause suffering to human communities and the natural world. We commit ourselves with an awareness of how systems of oppression based on factors such as race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability/disability, class, and global inequality inevitably cause some members of our human family to suffer more than others, both historically and today. We commit ourselves to dismantling institutional and systemic oppression. We commit ourselves with an urgent sense of calling. Through our commitment, perseverance, and the transformational power of courage, compassion, and love, we commit to the healing of trauma; creating just ways of being together; and restoring, protecting, and preserving the rights and dignity of all people as well as the balance of the natural world.
