We are guided by our core values of justice and equity, interdependence, learning and listening, courageous transformation, and integrity as we partner with social movements and organizations that have creative and catalytic solutions to NCF's interconnected goals of racial, economic, and environmental justice (REEJ).
HOW WE COLLABORATE
