ABOUT US
MISSION
Future Communities Institute (FCI) seeks to improve lives by mobilizing the collective power of communities to address complex social challenges.
VISION
FCI envisions a world where communities are solving their most pressing issues through collaborative innovation and evidence-based solutions.
STRATEGY
Our strategy involves convening a diverse network of stakeholders from government, philanthropy, academia, industry, and finance to address systemic problems in homelessness, the future of work, and health. We prototype and validate innovative solutions, pilot these initiatives directly in-house or through partners, and scale successful programs through our expansive networks.
