Causa Justa :: Just Cause

Rather than accept the loss of our communities, Causa Justa :: Just Cause (CJJC) is taking bold steps to lead an effort that will address the Black displacement crisis. The Black Priorities Project (BPP) will provide a structure for grassroots Black community engagement needed to win healthy, stable communities. BPP leaders will reach out to local community members and to those pushed out of communities for insight on how gentrification threatens Black people in San Francisco. BPP will create a policy platform based on findings and make a case for equitable development toward a vibrant San Francisco. The Bay Area is now at the center of the national gentrification and displacement debate, and CJJC is poised to build a united base of leaders that can advance both Black organizing and the struggle against displacement. The Black Priorities Project can leverage the lived experience of Black families in our communities towards progressive change.
