ABUNDANT DREAMING
Sadie Nash Leadership Project’s mission is to strengthen, empower, and equip young women and gender-expansive* youth of color as agents for change in their lives and in the world. Operating at the intersection of love and rigor, we use popular education to build community, critical consciousness, and college and career readiness.
*The term “gender-expansive” came out of this report to classify youth who did not identify with traditional gender roles but were otherwise not confined to one gender narrative or experience.
OUR BELIEF
We believe that the foundation of leadership lies in service and activism — and that redefining what leaders and leadership looks like will transform our lives for the better.
OUR VISION
Join us in our vision of a world that centers the experiences and leadership of young women and gender-expansive youth of color, building on their perspective, commitment, and brilliance to be a healthier, safer, and more just society for us all.
“Sadie Nash expands our horizons, what we know about the world. It asks us what we want to do with ourselves, and how we are going to use our knowledge and skills to make the world what we want it to be. Here, everyone supports each other.”
— Nasher
