Family Independence Initiative Information

Family Independence Initiative (FII) trusts and invests directly in low-income families across the nation so they can work individually and collectively to achieve prosperity. We do this by providing families with a technology platform that they use to strengthen existing and create new social networks, access financial capital and incentives, set goals and monitor progress, and support one another in achieving mobility. Using the rich strength-based data and stories of our families’ progress, we invite low-income residents, foundations, the media, policymakers, and others across the U.S. to collectively re-think our social and economic systems to one that fortifies social connections, invests in initiative, and honors self-determination.
