GRO - Grass Roots Organizing of Missouri
WINS REAL RESULTS FOR REAL PEOPLE-
GRO-Grass Roots Organizing, is a community based statewide, nonprofit organization incorporated Friday, the 13th of October, 2000, headquartered in a recently renovated African-American funeral home in a small rural Missouri town (Mexico, MO).
The mission is to create a grassroots voice to win economic justice and human rights for all Missourians.
The consumer-driven grassroots group with dues paying members (about 75 - 80 % low income) and allies was organized to give tools and leadership opportunities for our families challenged by oppressive and unjust conditions to:
? Reform the way the status quo and powers- that- be conduct business;
? Establish a powerful civic force and community values agenda around Health Care, Worker's Rights, Utilities, Housing Reforms, and more to impact decisions at the local, state and national levels;
? Amplify voices, engage disenfranchised and new voters, and organize a collective presence within our communities; and
? Let REAL poverty experts [those directly impacted by social-economic policies, laws, unfair practices who live in poverty] take their rightful place at the table to offer REAL solutions.
GRO members drive, identify and decide the direction and focus of the organizing work. They have clearly defined outcomes for their efforts.
