Our Pillars
With a farm to table approach,
most foods are grown or raised locally and can help to combat the issues of food deserts in Gary by making fresh,
high-quality foods easily accessible to residents. It will also support restaurants, farmers markets and local businesses.
The goal of the business growth team is to develop and support innovative projects that not only make the city of Gary more economically prosperous but create opportunities for ownership and wealth building for residents.
For a community to progress and heal,
it is important to focus on growth in the most holistic way possible. This means creating resources that uplift women, children and families that could use additional support and serving the most vulnerable in our communities.
All communities aren’t impacted equally by the effects of waste, pollution and quality of air or water. Our environment has a huge role in our health and wellbeing. Environmental justice is critical to ensuring that we all have safe spaces to work, live and play.
Looking forward to a bright future requires change in how we live and fuel our day to day lives. Within the renewable energy pillar, we aim to reduce waste, manage energy production more efficiently, implement existing and innovative solar and wind energy.
For our communities to be safe, we must address systemic issues that cause a lack of trust with local law enforcement agencies and ensure that all of our residents have access to quality services, like community para-medicine that put their well-being first.
