Des Moines Mutual Aid
We are an Abolitionist Mutual Aid Collective based in what is currently known as Des Moines, IA.
Current Projects:
- Material and court support for our Houseless neighbors
- Bail Fund, legal, and court support for our street warriors
- Organize with our neighbors The Panther Pantry, a weekly free grocery re-distribution that was founded by the Des Moines Chapter of The Black Panther Party
- Criminal Records Expungement Program in collaboration with the Des Moines Abolition Coalition
Des Moines Mutual Aid is an abolitionist collective founded in 2019 as a response to the city of Des Moines continued violence to our houseless relatives. Since our founding we have expanded quickly and organized many projects that prioritize the strengthening of our communities and nurturing of the radical potential inherent in all of us.
