Fighting for social, economic & racial justice
OUR MISSION
VOCAL Action Fund is an advocacy organization allied with Voices Of Community Activists & Leaders (VOCAL), and acts as the policy and political voice of the most marginalized and vulnerable New Yorkers. The VOCAL Action Fund was created to provide a grassroots, independent and political voice for the most marginalized communities. Through educational and electoral activity, legislative advocacy, voter education, and community organizing, the VOCAL-NY Action Fund serves to enhance and politicize the mission and vision of VOCAL state chapters.
OUR VISION
VOCAL Action Fund is dedicated to mobilizing directly-impacted people to elect officials who will fight for a just, equitable, caring, and compassionate democracy. By electing lawmakers who represent the interests of low income people and communities of color, we can fight for systemic change rooted in justice, compassion, and love. We approach this work with a firm belief in reducing harm and ending stigma, and the knowledge that the issues impacting our communities are driven by institutional oppression, not personal failings.
