“We believe in a world where every person can thrive with dignity.”

Co-Founder and Co-CEO
We want to help create a future for everyone that is more just, inclusive, and full of opportunity. From helping families navigate rising housing costs, to supporting common-sense immigration policies, to reforming the criminal justice system, we focus on tackling the systemic barriers that hold so many back from reaching their full potential. We do this alongside the communities we serve, learning from and partnering with the organizations and leaders most deeply affected by these challenges.

Focus Areas
Criminal Justice Reform
The justice system must be redesigned with community health and safety at its core, rather than incarceration. Through advocacy, grantmaking, technology, and innovation, we work to drive change and build opportunities for those impacted by the justice system.
Safe, stable, and affordable housing is crucial to a family’s success and to building healthy and diverse communities. We work with community leaders, advocates, researchers, policymakers, and investors to help more people find housing that meets their needs.
We believe in an immigration system that keeps families and communities together, fosters smart policies that drive economic growth for all, and supports a pathway to citizenship for the 11 million immigrants without status who call America home.
