For 30 years, Western States Center has worked with you – our dedicated partners and donors – to build progressive movement in the West. Together, we’ve accomplished so much. But with the rise of white nationalism and regressive Trump administration actions threatening all the gains we’ve made, we knew we needed to do more.
Over the past year we’ve been retooling Western States to meet the extraordinary challenges of this moment in time. We’ve reorganized our work into four areas of strategic focus that position us to work simultaneously on two fronts: challenging the terrain upon which white nationalists are building their movements, while strengthening our own movements to withstand this attack.
Please read on for details of what we accomplished with your support over the past two years, and the innovative strategies we’re now piloting.
Thank you for your dedication to this work. The need has never been greater.
