Description

About NOA

The National Organizers Alliance (NOA), founded in 1993 by organizers working across the spectrum of progressive social justice movements, has a two-fold purpose. NOA's mission is to advance progressive organizing for social, economic and environmental justice and to sustain, support and nurture the people of all ages who do it. In furtherance of that goal, our members are organizers who are responsible to a defined constituency and who help build that constituency through leadership development, collective action and the development of democratic structures.

Wanda Salaman, born in Puerto Rico, has lived in New York City for almost 30 years. She is currently serving her third term as a NOA board member. She is Director of Mothers on the Move (MOM) in Bronx, NY. MOM is a determined group of parents and community residents who refused to let their community's children be victims of racism and neglect.

Idida Perez directs the West Town Leadership Project, an organizing project that engages parents in community-based school reform in Chicago, IL. This is her second term as a board member. In1999, Idida began a monthly discussion/support group for women organizers in Chicago. She was involved with the Gathering V planning committee and thinks one of NOA's strengths is its ability to attract a diversity of social justice workers.
