Guiding Principles

We are guided by our commitment to:

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion

We welcome people of all genders, ages, ethnicities, cultural backgrounds, abilities, and more, never using our differences to exclude and divide us. Our work centers broad and equitable access to tools, resources, and information.

Collaboration & Transparency

We are invested in connecting and promoting mutual aid groups and community-based organizations active on the ground, not ourselves. To best respond and adapt to the needs of community members and mutual aid initiatives, we are open about the ways we operate and build/use open-source technology whenever possible.

Privacy, Safety, & Anonymity

We value the privacy and security of the people and groups that use and contribute to our resources. We prioritize safety and anonymity in our tools, systems, and communications.

Accountability

We take responsibility for the impact of our work and hold ourselves accountable to each other and to our communities.
