The Spokane Alliance is everyday people taking powerful action together for the common good.
We develop the diverse voices of our community, building relationships across religious, racial, class, and neighborhood lines.
Together we build the power to make the positive changes they want to see in our community, making our shared home a better place to live and thrive.
It’s been a busy winter for the Spokane Alliance! Below is a recap of all the great work we have accomplished together in the past few months.
In this newsletter, you will hear about Friends of Alliance, the current work of our teams, the important policies we are moving forward and meet our newest members.
Last week the Spokane Alliance’s victory to fund mental health support in childcare centers was featured in Mental Health Weekly!

"More help will now be there for families of young kids. Spokane County commissioners are giving more than $316,000 to three daycares: Little Scholars, Parkview Early Learning, and A Bright New Beginning." Both Little Scholars and Parkview Early Learning are members of Spokane Alliance.
