One Community is a community-based organization founded to make Fort Greene/Clinton Hill, Brooklyn an example of community equity and sharing. Many of our neighbors – living in public housing and adjoining low-income blocks – are separated from resources and opportunities as though surrounded by a wall. One Community bridges resources and needs and dismantles the wall of structural inequality. Often acting with community partners, we initiate programs that immediately change people’s lives. In addition to connecting neighbors to opportunities and resources, One Community's programs create agency and widen participants’ horizons. One Community's mission is to reduce structural inequality and dismantle community divisions in Fort Greene and Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. It accomplishes this by (1) promoting the broadest distribution of resources in our community, (2) promoting the articulation of needs by residents of the underserved parts of the community and (3) promoting the talents and voices of all parts of the community so that the diversity of our experiences is well understood and appreciated. Specifically, with partners, One Community creates programs which meaningfully change people’s lives for the better.
