Mission and Vision:
GAVA organizes and mobilizes community power to reduce barriers to health while increasing institutional capacity
to respond to the people most impacted by historic inequities.
We envision a future in which a person’s neighborhood, income, race, ethnicity, primary language, or immigration
status no longer serves as a predictor of health outcomes.
GAVA works in the following East Austin zip codes: 78744, 78745, 78752, 78753, and 78758 with a focus on Climate
Resilience, Early Childhood & Family Health, Food Justice, and Neighborhood Stability
