We are committed to supporting each other as a collective with shared power and autonomy within the organization as evidenced by a shared leadership approach to executive leadership.. Mama Sana Vibrant Woman is more than a job; it is a project that we are passionate about, a support system, and a space to enact and build our lifestyle, politics and our vision for the world and the movements we want to see.
