The following principles guide our work as we navigate San Francisco’s complex civic landscape and neighborhood politics:
- Review
- We believe in rigorous, fact-based review. Only by thoroughly examining policies, processes, and stakeholder dynamics can we deliver clear, concise information to the community—and help identify practical, constructive solutions.
- Collaboration
- Our goal is to establish a two-way dialogue between the community and City agencies—one that moves beyond performative outreach toward genuine engagement and mutual accountability. Too often, communication flows in only one direction. We’re here to push for change.
- Demographic Diversity
- We believe meaningful representation requires a wide range of voices, ideas, and lived experiences. Welcoming differing perspectives and encouraging open participation are essential to building a more inclusive and representative civic process.
- Transparency of Process
- We advocate for open information-sharing and inclusive dialogue. By bringing more perspectives into view, we promote accountability, broaden understanding, and strengthen the foundation for long-term, community-driven decisions.
- Accountability
- We hold our institutions and elected leaders to a standard of transparency, responsiveness, and public service. Civic power should be earned—not assumed—and public trust depends on oversight, follow-through, and a genuine commitment to serve the communities they represent.
