fAMILIES

We support programs that honor lived experiences and incorporate resident voices in the design, implementation, and governance of family-support services.

 

We fund programs and community-building efforts that help families build on their strengths and increase their self-efficacy, and that implement trauma-responsive practices. We also support comprehensive programs that safeguard equitable access to concrete services such as food, shelter, childcare, and safety.

Examples of grant-funded activities include, but are not limited to:

  • Family resource centers that promote physical health and wellness, child development, and parenting;
  • Organizations that build pathways for families to attain financial literacy, employment, and economic mobility;
  • Community-organizing initiatives focused on emerging issues prioritized and led by residents.
