Current Initiatives

For the past few years we’ve been listening to leaders of locally-led organizations, advocates, and community-based movement around the world in order to learn how to best support, accompany, and platform their inspiring work.

We’ll be rolling out details over the next year about what’s in store for Locally Led’s 2024-2025 cycle.

Keep updated on all our on-going initiatives in the space below.

In the Fall of 2024, Locally Led will begin working to re-purpose a 13-acre, riverside farm situated in the Pacific Northwest into a one of a kind community space. This new space allows leaders of community-based organizations, activists, and advocates to retreat, reset, heal, and build community with other organizers and advocates within their community and around the region.

In the years to come, we’ll host workshops, retreats, organizing events, and provide opportunities for those we serve to learn from their peers about new approaches that will help them be more conscious of the mental, emotional, and relational wellbeing of their teams, allies, and community members…while also learning practical ways to care for, nourish themselves.

Beginning in October 2024, and continuing for the indefinite future, Locally Led will be partnering with Raseef: Beirut, a restaurant/cultural space/guesthouse re-purposed into a community kitchen + community mobilization space that is cooking meals for the displaced, homeless, and those in critical need of food in their city following the Israeli attacks that targeted residential neighborhoods around the city. Raseef has churned out enough meals to feed 1200 people per day. The space has also mobilized with other members of their network in Beirut to deliver mattresses, blankets, pillows and distribute hygiene kits to women in the community.
