We partner with communities to increase self-efficacy, power, and justice. Our team has the knowledge, skills and commitment to co-create and implement strategies that improve lives and change systems.We recognize the interconnectedness of the institutions, systems, and sectors that affect people's lives. We deploy expertise and cultivate partnerships that strategically connect philanthropy, non-profits and the public sectors to advance our purpose to create a radically just new world.In response to the growing demand for equity, we devised Converge College as a unique solution to equip companies and their external advisors with a system to implement equitable practices and policies in their work. We will soon begin recruiting coaches for our new Converge College RISE Coach Certification Program, a 3-week program delivered through self-study and weekly live interactive sessions via Zoom during the month of December.
