We know from decades of experience that inclusive structures and distributed decision-making are essential to activating bold justice strategies.
In justice organizations, our expectations of work structures and processes are fundamentally different than in mainstream nonprofits. We created JustOrg Design specifically for leaders actively rethinking traditional ways of holding power and working to distribute decision-making in concert with their values of inclusion and justice.
JustOrg Design helps organizations to get out of structural limbo: unwilling to sustain structures that have lost relevance but unsure of where to go next.
We take as inspiration what the the renowned abolitionist and scholar Ruth Wilson Gilmore recently said:
“If consciousness is the means through which we imagine ourselves into the future then organizations are the form.”
If this resonates, we hope to connect with you on the path forward sometime soon.
