AORTA: Anti-Oppression Resource & Training Alliance
@aorta.coop
AORTA is a worker-owned cooperative of facilitators, strategists, and consultants devoted to helping our movements for justice renew a stronger sense of liberatory vision, values, and purpose. Unlike traditional “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” or DEI work that supports performative shifts while maintaining the status quo, AORTA focuses on creating new structures and cultivating practices that support collective governance, power sharing, and deep democratization. Organizational change work requires that we do the personal work to unlearn the horizontal violence and psychological harm that plague our movements for justice. From one-on-one coaching with individuals to identity based caucuses, we bring a healing-centered and resilience-focused approach in supporting reflection around resistance and change, igniting opportunities for bold growth and visioning. We are strategists with decades of experience in campaign organizing and strategic planning for groups ranging from coalitions to worker cooperatives. With a sharp power analysis, we build connections sectors and geographies to weave together the strategies needed across our movements for liberation.
