Redistribute Wealth: MILPA

Each month SURJ Santa Cruz County suggests a local organization that is doing excellent work strengthening racial and economic justice in our county. If you’re able, please consider making a donation– healthy for you, healthy for our community. Thank you!

Many thanks to Bernie from MILPA for joining us in conversation at our Community Meeting on March 22!  The Care Not Cages working group– a collaboration between our two organizations– is making real change in the criminal legal system for our county. We look forward to continuing this important work together!

MILPA Collective (MILPA) is, first and foremost, a movement space designed for, and led by, formerly incarcerated and system-impacted individuals. They are committed to supporting next-generation infrastructure and leadership within communities, organizations, and systems. They center cultural healing, racial equity and LOVE in their practices and advocacy.
