Building Strength and Equity
One of the most devastating aspects of the COVID-19 crisis is the disproportionate impact it is having on communities of color—a clear outcome of discrimination and underinvestment that long predates the pandemic. Our urgent response to the fallout for these communities includes intentional efforts to bridge the gaps that created this disparate impact in the first place. And these actions are not limited to the lifespan of this pandemic—our strategy is designed to help communities and people recover, and to build the strength and resiliency that will carry us all into a more equitable and just future.
Who We Are
For more than 40 years, LISC, the country's largest community development nonprofit, has invested in people and places to move the needle on housing, employment, family wealth, education, safety and justice, and health. We do this by connecting communities with financing, technical assistance and other resources that help boost capacity and stability. And we prioritize equity in every program and policy we deliver.
