“WITHOUT COMMUNITY, THERE IS NO LIBERATION”
— Audre Lorde
Born in spring 2023 as a dance party & fundraiser for Moms Demand Action, we are a community collective who organize with intention: dance party fundraisers for Kansas City justice movements, community clubs (birding! books! writing! art!) & social gatherings (plants swaps! family hikes!)
Created by caregivers (but not just for parents) we organize for joy & action, and to create connections around our shared futures.
We are rooted in principles of anti-racism and collective liberation. Through membership we will grow friendship, joy, celebration, and belonging.
Memberships are for women, trans, and non-binary folks (ABCD: anyone but cis dudes) in the Kansas City region.

member contributions
At Moms Rage, our core principle is “everyone contributes”. In that spirit, members commit to:
Offering time and/or skills to the group (based on your capacity and the needs of the group)
An annual membership fee (sliding scale of $5 - $50+)
Moms*Rage membership fees will sustain our ability to create events and continue to build our community.
Dues will go towards: website costs, event costs, & ticket transaction fees. Our treasury expenses will be transparent and available to members!
OUR COMMITMENT TO GROUP SAFETY
At Moms*Rage, we prioritize creating safe spaces for all members. This means maintaining confidentiality within our group, protecting each other's emotional well-being, and honoring event safety rules (i.e. no late entry at dances, don’t use substances and drive). These practices reflect our dedication to caring for each other and our community.
** BTW … We’re expanding our core team! **
The Moms Rage Core Team explores and expands our vision while providing leadership on essential work. We want to grow our current core team from three (3) to eleven (11).
M*R Core Team members must be willing to:
Attend monthly Core Team meetings
Chair or co-chair an event/initiative (Ex: Peace Parade, dances, educational events, community actions, social media communications, administration, etc.)
Commit to a 2-year rotating term
We are committed to sustainable growth and honoring our human capacity season to season.
