Member Action Council
In the collective vision of Palenque - a spirit of resistance, solidarity, and self-reflection, intentionally centering Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities - we collaborate and address important community issues together as well as share information and resources.
Palenque LSNA’s membership is comprised of community institutions such as service organizations, schools, places of worship, and block clubs. Each member organization appoints a representative to the Members Action Council (MAC), which meets quarterly.
