Our Strategic Priorities

As we move into a thriving future, we will focus on three strategic priorities: household stability, school and career readiness, and mental health. We will continue to work with and on behalf of our partners and neighbors, but this work will require more and deeper collaboration, a willingness to envision new ways of serving and supporting people in our community, and a commitment to a regional approach to our shared work.

Investing for Equity and Impact

General operating support is an emerging best practice in philanthropy. This approach provides flexible funding that enables nonprofits to direct dollars where they know it is needed most, and to be nimble and able to respond to emerging needs. This model also helps shift the power imbalance in philanthropy that traditionally made it more difficult for marginalized organizations to access funding. Our funded partners agree to meet specific outcomes in one or more of our priority areas and report critical impact data.
