Mission: PODER’s mission is to organize with Latino immigrant families and youth to put into practice people-powered solutions that are locally based, community led and environmentally just. We nurture everyday people’s leadership, regenerate culture, and build community power. We organize in San Francisco’s Mission, Excelsior and other southeast neighborhoods, & forge alliances to achieve transformational change.
“The dispossession of land, an extractive and exploitative global economy, and repressive immigration policies have shaped where and how our Latinx immigrant community moves. Working class communities dependent on reliable and affordable transportation must be able to define our mobility and access to San Francisco in order to authentically participate in the full breadth of our city’s ecosystem. Resources from Climate Ride help PODER put into practice people-powered solutions that are locally based, community led and environmentally just!” – Jessie Fernandez, Bicis del Pueblo Coordinator
