Policy Principles & Priorities:
In the summer of 2021, the Inland Empire Community Foundation officially launched its Office of Policy & Engagement. The objective of the Office is to address inequities in the Inland Empire by creating greater policy capacity in the region through collaboration, uplifting community-based organizations and their ideas, and amplify a greater voice and influence on policymakers and the region’s major institutions. In an effort to be a global community partner, the Inland Empire Community Foundation’s policy priorities will include: Education Equity, Inclusive Economic Development, Housing, Health, and the Environment.
