OASIS is a proud Family Values @ Work Initiative

Our Values

OASIS was designed intentionally to be grounded in values that support collective and transformative power to be used for the purpose of developing democratic institutions in state legislatures.

Building Power that Centers Equity

We are committed to helping equity and justice-focused women and non-binary legislators to build power, influence and longevity in their chambers.

People-Centered

We center the experiences of people facing the most barriers to power and resources, and those facing all forms of injustice.

Systems that Serve

We are committed to creating systems that serve people and communities and changing those multiple systems that, intentionally or unintentionally, oppress or cause harm.

Justice

We are committed to anti-racism and justice for all people facing oppression – racial, gender, economic, social, environmental, LGBTQ, reproductive and disability justice.

Gender Inclusive

We aim to support cis women, trans people, non-binary and gender-fluid people. We appreciate and value a broad range of gender expressions and identities.
