Vision
Communities are places where all can live, work, and thrive.
Mission
To connect for good.
The quality of our connections will nurture the conditions for communities to thrive. We’re on a mission to support organizations, communities, and our leaders in coming together to address our community's most complex challenges.
Our Values
Joyful Creativity
Evolution favors experimentation. While committed to the common good, we are skeptical of the common wisdom. We are committed to innovation while both honoring our past and building for our future.
Inclusion
Knowing that your destiny is inextricably tied to another’s story is the only way to ensure a commitment to the common good. When people feel seen and heard, they will tell you the truth, and only then can we create shared understanding and move forward together.
Strong Relationships
Strength in relationships is the foundation for lasting and meaningful change. We build strong relationships across sectors, systems, and communities to advance our shared mission.
Disruption
Action requires discomfort and energy requires friction; while the purpose of a bridge is to connect, its strength depends on a healthy amount of tension.
Results that Matter
We commit to asking good questions and hold ourselves and our partners accountable for results that change lives.
Storytelling
We make the important interesting.
