Racial Wealth Equity Network
Centuries of discriminatory policies and practices have widened the racial wealth divide. We're working to make it right.
The Prosperity Now Racial Wealth Equity Network brings together practitioners, advocates, and researchers from multiple disciplines to focus on program, organizational, and policy solutions to achieve racial wealth equity, including uplifting the expertise of practitioners and organizations of color. The Network will share tools and resources, host community conversations and peer learning via our listserv, and manage learning cohorts, working groups, and other opportunities to advance learning and leadership.
