At Nobody Leaves Mid-Hudson, we believe that those most affected by the issues should be leading the fights. For this reason, we prioritize the empowerment of members to take on the leadership of their own fights, campaigns, and our entire organization. We do this by training members in organizing skills, using leadership bodies like organizing committees and leadership teams to make collective, member-led decisions about our group, running paid internships for high school students, and encouraging our members to step up at every opportunity.
