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.
