By preserving, protecting, and producing more affordable housing for all, we can help build healthier, more diverse communities.
CZI | How We Support Our Community
We work to build an equitable, inclusive, and just California full of opportunity, where everyone and every community has the power to shape their future.
“The Bay Area is such a special place, but it’s also facing big challenges. The future of our community depends on our ability to ensure that everyone can live, work, and succeed here.”
Our Work in the Community
Our work is rooted in strong collaborations and partnerships with the community. We work closely with local organizations that are activating community-centered solutions to address housing affordability, homelessness, education, and more; and that are building community power. We also connect organizations and leaders so that they can work together, share knowledge, and identify collaborative responses to issues facing the community.
Community Capacity Building
Capacity building helps organizations build resilience, adaptability, and effectiveness. Equipped with additional knowledge and resources, nonprofits can adjust or scale their work, support and grow their teams, develop and deepen relationships with partners, and plan for the future. Working together with local experts and our grant partners, we co-design and host capacity building programs that connect nonprofit leaders and support organizational and leader development. At the center of this work is community and collaboration — creating space for organizations to connect and align on shared issues and opportunities for partnership and growth together.

“Impact is made when you can authentically connect with the communities you want to serve to find solutions and chart a path forward together. Although this can be hard to measure, by cultivating deeper engagement with our partners they can tell us what’s working and what’s not. It’s a lot more powerful to hear from our communities and work towards a shared vision of success.”
