Resilient Sustainable Future for Iowa City
Every change globally will create strategic opportunities locally. Let’s invest now!

Our Mission
Resilient Sustainable Future for Iowa City’s mission is to build systemic long-term resilience in Iowa City.
Our Vision
Our vision is an Iowa City with strong and interdependent neighborhoods, where we’re all working on something important for the community, we have the diverse set of skills we need to sustain ourselves, and we’ve claimed ownership of fundamental sources of power like food, shelter, and energy.
Our Strategies
Redefine what’s normal and what’s imaginable. Empower neighbors to develop more resilient neighborhoods. Amplify existing stories of resilience and sustainability while countering extractive and consumerist narratives.
Our Values
• Solidarity
• Relocalizing power
• Integrity
• Humility
• Consuming less
