Public Welfare Foundation’s grantees are deep wells of wisdom. Their work puts them on the front lines, defending against harmful policies while continuing to advance change. Through storms, they withstand with principle, conviction, and courage.
While some PWF grantees work alongside one another in the same communities, many work states apart in different landscapes with different players. It’s easy to feel scattered and disparate despite a wealth of collective experiences, victories, and learnings. In a recent survey conducted by the Foundation, grantees expressed a clear desire for a greater ability to connect and coordinate to advance common goals.
That’s why the Foundation has launched The Collective: A Peer Learning Exchange. The virtual webinar series spotlights promising transformative justice initiatives and organization capacity strategies. Partners from across the country will be able to connect, learn from one another, and build relationships for stronger coalitions.
