COMMUNITY. EMPOWERMENT. DIGNITY.

We understand that the human struggle takes many forms—relational, social, physical, sexual, emotional, educational, economic, cultural, racial, political, and many other forms—and we’re passionate about supporting the whole person’s innate capacity to heal.

In keeping with our values, MPG recognizes that achieving social justice in our communities is a transformation that must occur on the inside and the outside of each one of us.
