ABOUT US:
COMMUNITY
We Run Brownsville (WRB) is a community-based, nonprofit organization that works to improve health outcomes for Black and Brown women by creating a brave space to cultivate their well-being and the well-being of the larger community… Learn more as you tour the site.
Our Mission
We Run Brownsville (WRB) aims to embolden Black and Brown women living and working in Brownsville to take ownership of their physical, mental, emotional and financial wellness. Through the lens of collective responsibility, WRB promotes “active activism” as a way to co-create an empathetic support structure to sustain a holistic healthy lifestyle and advance an empowered resistance to systemic barriers.
Our Impact
We Run Brownsville seeks to raise awareness around existing health disparities to cultivate leadership and advance advocacy around issues of equity to lead community transformation from within.
Community-led change is not effective if the message isn’t amplified, if funding resources are difficult to access, if placemaking initiatives are singularly focused and if significant investments in “people power” are not made.
WRB supports empowered women to raise empowered children and sustain empowered communities.
