Program accomplishments

  • During FY24, Black Phoenix Votes intentionally paused active program operations to focus on strategic reflection, organizational realignment, and capacity building. This period was dedicated to assessing past efforts, refining our goals, and developing a sharper, more effective strategy to advance Black liberation and working-class power in Maricopa County and beyond. Key accomplishments include strengthening leadership frameworks, deepening community relationships, and enhancing our political infrastructure to better mobilize voters and support progressive candidates in future election cycles. This strategic reset has positioned Black Phoenix Votes for sustainable growth and increased impact in the years ahead.
