The Spokane Alliance is everyday people taking action in unison for the common good.

We develop the diverse voices of our community, building relationships across religious, racial, class, and neighborhood lines.

Together we build the power to make the positive changes they want to see in our community, making our shared home a better place to live and thrive.

Wrestling with the Truth of Colonization - Building Partnerships for Collaborative Action

Spokane Alliance's Truth and Transformation Team formed in 2020 to bring together faith, labor, and nonprofit leaders to build reciprocal relationships with Indigenous communities. Over the past five years, this work has grown from education into sustained partnership. More than 130 Spokane area leaders have completed the 16 hour Wrestling with the Truth of Colonization training, alongside participation in Indigenous led cultural events, historical tours, and ongoing learning. We are continuing this work by bringing the Wrestling with the Truth of Colonization Training back to Spokane.

Housing Equity and Action

HEART, the Housing Equity Action Research Team, leads our affordable housing work. HEART is a group of activated leaders from the Spokane Alliance and West Central Neighborhood working together to expand housing options in West Central and all of Spokane.

Public Dollars, Public Investment, Public Benefit

Good jobs have been a priority for the Spokane Alliance since our founding. Currently, the Jobs Team is focused on ensuring that all Public Works projects in the Spokane region create benefits for the whole community. 

We Build Leaders

“I went to the training with some aspirations of building power in Spokane but feeling very uncertain and uncomfortable about pursuing them and came home with actionable goals and calm determination to do the work.”
