Description of Activities
Hogan’s Alley Society (HAS) is a Black-led non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the social, political, economic, and cultural well-being of people of African descent in Metro Vancouver. We prioritize values of decolonization, anti-oppressive practices, and fostering an organizational culture of care. Our mission is to promote the well-being of African descent communities, envisioning a society free from racism, with a community hub as a catalyst for enrichment and belonging. We lead in developing Afrocentric, affordable housing, particularly through our Hogan's Alley Block initiative, grounded in one of Canada's few Black-led Community Land Trusts, to ensure long-term affordability and prevent further displacement.
