Community Benefit Focus Areas

The number of small businesses increased during the pandemic. Access to small business development resources, capital, and technical assistance is essential to the growth and sustainability of existing and new micro-enterprises.
Financial inclusion and access to credit for individuals, small businesses, and the community may help close pervasive wealth gaps. Preparation for financial disruptions increases resilience during times of economic uncertainty.
Civic engagement, volunteerism, service leadership, charitable contributions, and grants fuel essential safety net services to support resilient people and communities.
Effective place-based community planning and revitalization involves all members of the community. Community stakeholders, like Community Development Financial Institutions, are best positioned as regional conveners to leverage incentives, geographic designations, and community reinvestment compliance mandates that encourage redevelopment and reinvestment. Their public-private partnerships infuse capital to scale small businesses and rehabilitate residential, institutional, and commercial spaces in disenfranchised communities.
Workforce retention has become more challenging amidst quiet quitting, quiet cutting, and quiet firing. Setting mutually beneficial development, work-life balance, and compensation goals between employers and employees can foster stronger, more trusting relationships to enable psychologically safer work environments. Ensuring students, teachers, and schools have right-sized monetary and human capital resources creates opportunities for learning that supports labor market productivity, community stability, and in-migration.
Compounded by medically underserved areas, physician shortages, infrastructure shortfalls, and limited broadband access, households continue to suffer as a result of gaps in trauma-informed care. this exacerbates disparities in optimal community and behavioral health amongst uniquely resourced communities. Social determinants of health further complicate achieving equitable access to quality health services and infrastructure for the most vulnerable communities.
