Racial equity and economic equity are at the core of the Moran Center’s mission and vision for a more restorative society.
The Moran Center will not erase the words “racial equity” from our values, message, and programs to capitulate to the current administration.
Supporting Our Team
Recent federal actions have created real uncertainty and anxiety as to whether Moran Center employees – whose work is rooted in racial equity, civil rights, immigrant support, and community advocacy – will continue to qualify for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF). That uncertainty is compounded by the broader instability and confusion surrounding student loan administration and PSLF.
As a values-based organization, the Moran Center is pursuing creative and practical ways to support staff both in and out of the office, including competitive compensation and benefits such as direct 403(b) contributions for employees navigating the student loan landscape, so they can build long-term financial security.
Land Acknowledgment
We recognize that we work and raise funds on the unceded ancestral homelands of the Council of Three Fires: the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi Nations.
Many Indigenous Nations have called this region home, including the Menominee; Otoe, Missouria, and Iowas; Winnebago/Ho-Chunk, Meskwaki; Sauk; Miami, Wea, and Piankasha; Kickapoo; and Illini Confederacy.
The Moran Center financially supports the cultural outreach efforts of the Gichigamiin Indigenous Nations Museum to preserve the heritage of greater Evanston’s indigenous peoples.
Client Engagement
The Moran Center clients have the choice to share their lived experiences, and are compensated for their participation in promotional materials.
