PANA’s Integrated Approach to Democracy and Justice 

TRUST SD Coalition

The Transparent and Responsible Use of Surveillance Technology San Diego (TRUST SD) Coalition was originally formed to address the widespread and secretive use, installation, and acquisition of the Smart Streetlights technology that is being deployed all over San Diego County. TRUST SD is now leading the call for community oversight of the use of all surveillance technology and a strong, legally enforceable ordinance to address privacy and civil liberty issues. To that end, we wrote and are advancing a community-focused ordinance that will put in place community oversight and transparency essential for our Democracy. We educate community members through community forums and workshops around the county as well as city council members and other government and elected officials through our lobbying efforts. We advocate for community-led solutions to all problems we face as a city. We are 100% community-centered and community-driven.

TRUST SD is made up of 30 local community organizations that represent various sectors of our communities.

Open Door Policy

PANA has an open door policy with community members and operates as a one-stop shop for issues that our local MASA community faces. From helping families who have been unfairly denied social benefits to those facing unlawful eviction, and we are sensitive to and keenly aware of the unique legal challenges our communities face.

Support Community

PANA is now leading actions on behalf of community members who are targeted by government agencies - local, state, and federal - in the name of national security and counterterrorism.

Fight for Impact

PANA is particularly focused on the nexus of criminal justice, national security, and immigration law. We recognize the direct connection between the mass criminalization of communities of color and immigration law. For this reason, PANA will engage in impact litigation to bring much-needed change in our criminal and immigration systems.

We believe in

Democracy for All.

We believe

Justice is for Everyone.
