A Vision Through the Mist

Community-Driven Solutions 

    Finding Camelot is a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating cooperative housing communities that empower individuals and families through affordable living, shared responsibilities, and personal growth.

    Our mission is to foster emotional intelligence, heal generational trauma, and promote economic empowerment by providing sustainable, community-driven solutions.


    By prioritizing people over profit, we aim to build a culture where everyone has the opportunity to thrive emotionally, socially, and spiritually. We are:

      • network of cooperative households owned by the nonprofit, renovated through tax-deductible donations.
      • A system that allows people to live together peacefully in close quarters, starting with a single household and expanding from there.
      • A model that reduces the cost of living through cooperation, enabling members to control how their labor is applied.
      •  A movement that empowers the working class by fostering collective bargaining on a massive scale.

        Legal System Reform: A Crucial Step Toward Empowerment

        At Finding Camelot, we recognize that economic stability and social healing are impossible without addressing the deep-rooted injustices in our legal system. The working class is disproportionately affected by:

        • Predatory fines and fees that turn minor infractions into financial crises. 
        • Disproportionate incarceration that removes wage earners from their families and communities. 

         

        Our advocacy for legal system reform is central to our mission. 


        A just system should

        • Prioritize rehabilitation over incarceration, ensuring that mistakes do not lead to lifelong punishment. 
        • Uphold due process over expediency, preventing abuses of power that target the most vulnerable. 
        • Hold those in power accountable, so the system serves the people rather than exploiting them.


        Advocacy isn’t just about individual cases it’s about reshaping the foundation of our society to ensure that justice serves everyone.
