Help make Springfield and the Pioneer Valley better for all of us!

PVP’s work brings people with shared values together from across our city and our region to raise our collective voices for racial and economic justice. Our work unites people from different backgrounds with a shared goal of bringing about change both in Springfield and beyond. Our members are both youth and adult, originally from Springfield and the region and originally from other parts of the world, from different religious traditions and from different communities across the region.

We support the leadership of people right here in our community. We center the voices of those who are closest to the pain of injustice. We act strategically and collectively to advance issue campaigns that result in concrete improvement in people's lives. Our issues come from our members and our campaigns are member-led. We expect our elected officials and corporations to be accountable to all of us, not just a few of us. We expect that regular people in our community are not excluded from the tables of power in our city and in our region, but that they have seats at the table where decisions are made.

We are not afraid. We are hopeful and we are determined. We continue to move our collective power towards our vision for dignity, justice and liberation for all of our people. We invite you to join us.
