We remain committed to supporting organizations that seek to create measurable and sustainable systems change through policy advocacy work. We fund direct service organizations only when a broader systemic change strategy is clearly articulated. We encourage cross-issue and cross-sector work, and look to partner both with organizations that engage multiple strategies and emerging grassroots efforts as ways to build and strengthen broad-based movements led by women—especially low-income women and women of color.
