What We Believe
The members of Niles United represent a broad spectrum of personal beliefs and political affiliations. We are united around the following principles:
Inclusivity. We seek to create a more inclusive community, one that welcomes, celebrates, and treats all community members equitably, where all residents feel valued and safe to live without fear.
Transparency. We believe that governmental transparency is a critical goal. Transparency promotes accountability, trust, efficiency and effectiveness, and shines a light on corruption. It provides residents with the information needed to make informed voting decisions.
Accountability. We seek to hold accountable those in local government and others who are in positions of power.
Collaboration. We listen and learn from what people in the community are saying and support and amplify the messages of local individuals and organizations promoting social justice. We listen and learn from one another as we seek to reach common goals.
