Above all, we are drawn to calls for unity and renewed energy for investment in breaking down oppressive barriers and building communities that work for everyone. I am moved by how Michelle DePass, President and CEO of the Meyer Memorial Trust, <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/mmt.org\/news\/it-isnt-remotely-over\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">eloquently describes<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> how to look to our communities to inspire us when there is uncertainty.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Impact NW, we are invigorated in our mission to end homelessness, especially for our most-vulnerable neighbors. With a new President elected &#8212; and the historical election of the first woman and woman of color Vice President &#8212; we are looking forward to, as the President Elect describes, <em>\u201ca time to heal in America.\u201d<\/em> We are looking forward to doing what we have done for more than 50 years &#8212; unite our community and come together to take on the challenge of our day. I can\u2019t recall a time in my 30 years of work in the community when we have more needed to come together and find something we can all work on together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What I hear from the people at Impact NW &#8212; our clients, employees, supporters and partners &#8212; is, as Michelle DePass describes, a <em>\u201cflame of hope.\u201d<\/em> However, with that hope also comes apprehension and fear about potential backlash and violence against people of color. There are doubts that things will really change. But there is hope. Considering the challenges of 2020, and the centuries-old quest for justice, these voices of hope are especially powerful and what I am choosing to follow right now.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More and more, Impact NW is dismantling systems that oppress people while building a multi-cultural solution to prevent homelessness. We have work to do but we also have leaders doing the work. We know the path ahead won\u2019t be easy or comfortable, but we walk ahead anyway. Above all, we remain hopeful. We will continue to listen, change and engage anyone and everyone in this mission to prevent homelessness. It\u2019s what our community needs from us right now. It is time, as Vice President Elect Kamala Harris puts it, <em>\u201cto unite our country and heal the soul of our nation.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>-Andy Nelson, Impact NW Executive Director<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just like everyone, the people of Impact NW are navigating these unforgettable, historic times with expressions of relief, apprehension and hope.
