New Primer: On the Road to Racial and Economic Justice
Asset Funders Network’s newest primer helps asset funders expand their commitments to racial and economic justice and offers a shared framework for action. It creates a baseline understanding of the link between racial and economic justice and examines how standard philanthropic practices often perpetuate bias within our sector while disadvantaging initiatives led by people of color.
Our fourth biennial study of private and public funding in the CSA field provides insight into the types of organizations that fund CSAs and how those funds are used. Despite significant challenges presented by the pandemic, the CSA field continues to grow, with new programs launching across the country and hundreds of thousands of children enrolling each year.
