NPQ & YNPN Series on Diversity, Inclusion, and Justice
What Does It Look Like for a Community to Own Its Future?
In today’s world—perhaps more so than at any other time in recent history—the future of places big and small will not be determined by a singular leader or multinational corporation but rather by the people who live there. This article is the latest installment in the Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Series co-sponsored by YNPN and NPQ.Justice from Within: The Death Penalty and a New Vision for Criminal Justice through a Racial Justice Lens
For too long, US criminal justice has been based on retribution, with the death penalty set forth as the ultimate punishment. Not only has this system failed to promote public safety, it results in persistent racial bias. A new paradigm based on restorative justice that can heal communities, especially communities of color, is desperately needed.DataHaven, the Information Hub of South Central Connecticut

LISC CEO to Congress: Here’s What Opportunity Zones Need To Succeed
Maurice A. Jones testified before the Joint Economic Committee of Congress this week, urging its members to implement Opportunity Zones in ways that will truly benefit Americans in underinvested communities. The policy can spur billions in private investment in the country’s most distressed census tracts and play a major role in closing the opportunity gap, he said. But we need federal tax incentives and other strategies to help the program succeed.Crowdfunding + LISC Give Small Businesses a Big Boost
Small businesses are a major dynamo of innovation and growth in our economy—they make up more than 99 percent of U.S. enterprises and create two out of every three new jobs.
