Theory of Change

In service to our Mission and Vision, if, Can’t Stop! Won’t Stop! Consulting:

• Centers those directly impacted by systems of oppression and expands diversity, inclusion, equity, and belonging;

Values

EQUITABLE - We believe that everyone will live a more prosperous life when systems of oppression no longer exist, and there is fairness, justice, and liberation for all.

COMMUNITY - We are committed to building solidarity through being present for one another, learning with each other, and cultivating meaningful relationships that lift us up collectively. Storytelling is one of our most powerful assets.

LOVE - We operate from a place of love and compassion. We are open-minded about the ways to make social change. We believe Love is:

• L = Linking and Liberating
• O = Open-hearted and Inclusive
• V = Vibrational and Valuable
• E = Extraordinary and Abundant

BRILLIANCE AND CREATIVITY - We believe that radical passion comes from collective wisdom and radical imagination - expressing ourselves freely and authentically through culture, art, dance, graphic design, poetry, music, on stage, off-screen, on canvas, and more.

BALANCE AND PERSONAL GROWTH - Growth is not linear, and we honor that process. We are committed to everyone being their full selves by recognizing our needs, wants, and limitations. We understand that when we are grounded in community and work towards our healing, we can better live out our visions of transformative change.
