Thriving Kids

There’s nothing more important than ensuring our community’s children have what they need to thrive.

• Ensure access to prenatal care that addresses disparities in birth outcomes and maternal health
• Increase availability of high-quality, affordable care, early childhood learning opportunities, and individualized support for families
• Enhance accessibility to out-of-school time programming, academic support, and interventions for youth and families to ensure they are connected to their community

Strong Households

When families have what they need, they can break cycles of poverty and work toward a better tomorrow for future generations and our entire community.

• Advocate for greater access to safe, affordable, and stable housing across all income levels
• Ensure households have the resources they need to not only achieve safety and stability, but to thrive and improve their economic mobility
• Provide the framework and support for social service organizations so that they have resources to provide quality, timely care to the community members they serve

Equitable Community

We envision the Greater Louisville region as a place where zip code doesn’t determine destiny and everyone has the opportunity to grow into their full potential.

• Implement equitable, common sense criminal justice reforms that limit at-risk individuals’ contact with the justice system and promote successful reentry for those who are justice involved
• Address the history of structural and institutional policies that disproportionately affect marginalized communities and perpetuate cycles of generational poverty
• Promote civic and voter engagement to ensure that all voices are heard in the decision-making processes that shape our shared future

Nonprofit Sector

Empowering nonprofits is crucial to their ability to meet critical needs and solve our community’s most pressing challenges.

• Promote tax policies that fuel community solutions through nonprofits and encourage philanthropic giving
• Support laws and executive actions that help build stronger communities by strengthening the nonprofit sector and its workforce
