A broad-based organization promoting peace, justice, sustainability, and education through events and outreach.

    SCC services include the Samaritan Cafe, Market, Farm, and Shops, SnackPacks and BackPacks for kids, counseling, a dental program, and more.

Second Helping NWA

Combines food access with deeper conversations about inequality and community issues.
  • It was a desire to feed people coupled with a desire to fill a need that birthed Secondhand Smoke and Second Helping NWA. Secondhand Smoke is where food intersects with community-it is the foundation. Our foundation is rooted in connecting not just to, but within the community to feed people. It started out of a desire to provide food to anyone for any occasion.
    The opportunities to provide food through Secondhand Smoke quickly became opportunities to engage in conversations about community and the underlying obstacles that plagued community residents. Woven within these conversations was a need that revealed itself-this need centered around food insecurity.

    WCDW works to unite this diversity of devoted women behind two common goals–the support of the Democratic Party and the involvement of women in the political process.

    The purpose of WCDW is to provide educational programs for the membership and the greater community, to encourage Democratic women candidates, to strengthen civic participation, to recruit volunteers for campaigns, and to provide a greater voice for women.

We are a movement that is organizing to protect our rights and access to natural resources and a clean, safe, and healthy environment that will ensure a livable future. We believe when historically underrepresented communities who are impacted the most by environmental injustices and are also leading the way in creating solutions, are included in environmental decision-making, movements, and educational systems, environmentalism will be brighter, more equitable, and more revolutionary for all.
