About Vacaville Peoples Forum

Mission Statement: To provide a forum for underrepresented voices in Vacaville by promoting dialogue and engagement with the greater community.

Vision: We see a Vacaville where empathy and diversity are embraced, historical underrepresentation is acknowledged and addressed, and everyone has a seat at the table.

Our Beginnings

Founded in 2020, the Vacaville People’s Forum’s initial goal was to create a community-driven candidates forum where Vacaville citizens could ask questions that mattered to them.

Seeing a continued need for Vacaville’s underrepresented voices to be heard, VPF expanded its efforts. In addition to forums, it now organizes the Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Celebration observance; Be You! Inclusion & Resource Fair, a celebration of the special needs community; and Vacaville’s Pride in the Park Festival, recognizing our LGBTQ+ neighbors and friends. Its annual “Inspirational Women of Vacaville'' campaign highlights women whose contributions are often overlooked.

In 2024, the Vacaville People’s Forum was approved as a 501(c)3 charitable organization, dedicated to uplifting our community and driving positive change here in Vacaville.
