Our Work

Legislative
Advocacy.

Turning organized community power into reparative policy — persuading lawmakers to care about, and legislate on, economic justice for African Americans.

Power Into Policy. Justice Into Law.

We identify the policies that create and sustain the racial wealth gap, build undeniable cases for change, and bring organized constituent power to the tables where decisions are made.

From city halls to statehouses to Capitol Hill, we advocate for laws, budgets, and rules that repair harm and build Black wealth.

Our Goals

What We Work to Achieve.

Win Policy
