The Greenlining Institute

About

The Greenlining Institute works to build a nation where communities of color thrive by advancing economic opportunity, leadership development, and climate equity through advocacy, research, and coalition building. The organization serves historically under-invested communities by providing capacity building, technical assistance, and grassroots infrastructure support, while also training the next generation of racial equity leaders. Additionally, the institute promotes economic and environmental well-being through programs such as student housing for low-income residents, climate-resilient community initiatives, and strategies to close the racial wealth gap.
