The first step to reclaiming our health? Rebuilding community power. 

Corporations are destroying our health – and blaming us for it. But across the country, communities are fighting back – and winning. They’re challenging harmful systems and proving that change is possible.

But there’s a reason it feels impossible.

Corporations and their leaders have billions (and billions) of dollars and direct lines of influence to our politicians. Not only that, they want us to believe our health challenges are our fault. 

We’re told to eat better, exercise more, try harder— all while corporations engineer harm, make healthier choices the hardest choices, and shape the policies that determine our health.

Research shows zip code predicts health more than personal choices. Our environments are shaped by policies. And policies are shaped by corporate power.

Corporations gaslight us into blaming ourselves. They distract. Deny. Deceive. All while their profits soar and our health suffers.

But here’s the truth: You’re not the problem. And you’re not alone. 

Communities across the country are fighting back – and winning. 

In Pittsburgh, neighbors stopped a corporate water takeover, keeping water public, safe, and affordable. In Missouri, families won earned sick days and fair pay through a statewide ballot measure. In Oregon, farmers and residents won protections from factory farms harming local health and economies.

Corporate interests have stacked the deck against our health. 

This isn’t our fault. But it is our fight. 

And together, we can win.
