The Legacy Continues
Our Values
Founded in 2010, HUG has grown into a social justice and equity community organization operating from the understanding of shared power and undoing systemic oppression. Protecting Black LGBTQ and Black Trans folks is integral to the organizational outcomes. Black houseless folks and Black folks experiencing substance usage challenges are inclusive to healing our communities. Food, land, and cultural sovereignty are pivotal to recovering from colonization and is the basis of BIPOC communities thriving.
Mission
The mission is to develop systems for food sovereignty and create racial and economic justice. HUG partners with the community to grow healthy food, young people, and neighbors.
Vision
We seek to inspire our community to live with abundance while understanding and undermining the root causes of economic poverty, wealth accumulation, and systems of oppression.
