• BUILDING COMMUNITIES OF OPPORTUNITY

A child and an adult in a classroom. Funding from Capital Impact Investment Notes helps expand Capital Impact Partners' national footprint through organizations that provide access to critical social services, including health care, education, healthy foods, affordable housing, cooperatives, and dignified aging facilities.

We believe that every community should be built on a foundation of equity, inclusiveness and cooperation. This requires us to break down the barriers to success by addressing key social and economic justice issues. That is why we have dedicated our mission to delivering both the capital and commitment that help people build strong, vibrant communities of opportunities. Places where all people have access to high quality services that foster good health, economic growth, and interconnectedness.

Our Mission:

We help build inclusive and equitable communities by providing people access to the capital and opportunities they deserve.

Our Vision:

An economic system that respects and uplifts all peoples’ right to achieve the dreams they have for themselves, their communities, and generations to come.

Our Equity Vision Statement

As a Community Development Financial Institution, our mission is to break down the barriers that communities experiencing historical disinvestment and systemic racism find between themselves and their goals. Knowing the barriers these issues create, Capital Impact continually focuses on integrating equity more deeply within our strategy, as well as within the very framework of our organization.

To ensure we continue to increase our impact along this journey, we have created our first Equity Vision statement with guidance from The Justice Collective, which you can read here. In addition, we are now publicly tracking progress in our Annual Report and careers page in how we support this vision both internally and through our work with communities.

Capital Impact Partners envisions a world where everyone prospers. We embody equity as a workplace by embedding such in our structure, culture, policy, and products. In partnership with community, we endeavor to shatter the barriers created by systemic oppression in the pursuit of equitable access to resources that promote generational wealth development.
