Mission
THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES IN BUILDING COMMUNITY AND IN BRIDGING DIVISIONS THROUGH INDEPENDENT, TRANSPARENT JOURNALISM AND COMMENTARY, AND ENGAGEMENT THAT EMPHASIZES INCLUSIION, ACCEPTANCE, UNDERSTANDING, AND RESPECT. THIS MAKES WAY FOR A VOICE IN THE WIDEST RANGE OF BELIEF TRADITIONS WITH A PARTICULAR INTEREST IN THOSE WHOSE VOICES HAVE BEEN MUTED OR IGNORED. WE STRIVE TO BE POLITICALLY NEUTRAL BUT RECOGNIZE THE INTERSECTION OF ETHICS AND VALUES IN ANY DISCUSSION OF RELIGION, POLITICS, AND IDEOLOGICAL DIVERSITY.WE DEMONSTRATE A WIDE-RANGING WORLDVIEW BUT REMAIN DEPPLY ROOTED IN OUR HOME, WHICH IS THE INLAND NORTHWEST.
