The mission of We Are All Brooklyn is to promote and facilitate understanding, cooperation and mutual appreciation and respect among Brooklyn 's richly diverse communities. We Are All Brooklyn recognizes that a true appreciation of the borough's diversity does not end with tolerance or acceptance. Rather, these are stepping stones to an active embrace of the "New Diversity" – the idea that the more diverse the parts of a community, the stronger it is as a whole. To encourage individuals, institutions and communities in their paths towards celebrating and embracing the new diversity, We Are All Brooklyn: * Provides opportunities for community education on the meaning and value of diversity * Creates safe spaces for people to explore their own attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors towards others they perceive as different * Facilitates open dialogue among people and groups that are potentially or actually in conflict * Engenders trust and honesty in newly formed relationships among diverse individuals and groups * Demonstrates the mutual benefit to be had as a result of relationships among diverse individuals, institutions and communities * Responds positively and proactively to events or circumstances that could lead to misunderstanding, hatred and discrimination and/or hate crimes * Connects vulnerable populations to the vast body of safety-net resources available to them
