Pacific County Voices Uniting

Overview
Headquarters: 
South Bend, Washington
Website: 
pcvu.org
Annual Budget : 
$100-500,000
Size: 
11-50 employees
Founded: 
2019
About Us
Areas of Focus: 
Civil Rights / Social Justice
Civics / Government
Mission: 

Pacific County Voices Uniting is a 100% BIPOC-led organization that aims to shift, balance, and develop a culture of healthy civic engagement. In a county with large disparities, we are uniting cross-cultural and multi-generational demographics to participate in collaborative social movements that increase civic engagement through education, create more reflective representation and build political power.

Programs: 

Through education and other methods of engagement, we facilitate opportunities for community members to participate in the civic process and exercise collective power. We build authentic relationships with and increase the capacity of current and future leaders to understand issues and create more reflective representation of our diverse communities. As we grow and expand our resources as an organization, we develop community, regional, statewide and national partnerships to connect with broader political movements.

Why Work For Us?: 

Pacific County is home to diverse communities with deep roots in the region. However, people of color, the LGBTQIA2S+ community and people living with disabilities are disproportionately underrepresented and excluded from systems of governance and distribution of resources. Furthermore, in this divisive political climate, many community members have grown hopeless that change can happen. Consequently, community disinterest and disengagement are prevalent. PCVU is committed to building trusting relationships and bringing our communities together so that change is possible.

By lifting and supporting BIPOC leadership, we strive to promote systems and policies that create equitable access to resources for those often forgotten or silenced in our communities. More specifically, we seek racial, political, social, and economic justice for those most marginalized in our communities: Black, Indigenous, Mexican/Hispanic/Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islander peoples of color, the LGBTQIA2S+ community, and people living with disabilities both seen and unseen.
