By joining North Philly Project, you are choosing to become a valuable and appreciated part of a passionate team of individuals who are determined to be part of the positive change of North Philadelphia. Although many programs and initiatives exist, we feel that a strategy that seeks to integrate the uplifting power of community with the wisdom of various health and wellness best practices, youth and families-focused programs that are integrated into gentrification, will offer something new, unique, and valuable for residents in North Philadelphia.
We seek to include a variety of different lived experiences and the perspectives they each bring into North Philly Project. Although we each contribute something different, we are united by a shared commitment to the values and principles outlined in this document and our collaborative endeavor.
