Rise Up Kingston is a grassroots organization that works to Build Collaborative Community Economies in Kingston, centered on collective Social and Environmental Needs by dismantling the structures of Institutional Racism and Oppression in our community through Civic Engagement, Education and Advocacy.

Rise Up Kingston seeks to bring together all members of the Kingston Community to engage in conversations that will allow us to to reframe the way that we interact with each other based on collective decisions about our interdependence.

This work is needed to shift the power and create structural changes to dismantle all structures that uphold oppression & injustice. This work must be done with Collective Organizing for Ethical Liberation.

Rise Up Kingston will work towards transitioning our economy to one that is centered on our collective knowledge, and experiences, and our interdependence.
