It’s time for a new approach to poverty in the United States
What is The Shared Humanity Project?
The Shared Humanity Project is a response to the overwhelming evidence that our current approach to poverty is not working. With an extensive background in community engagement and data science, we have developed a new approach based on building partnerships across sectors. Our focus is on large-scale, multi-sector solutions while also providing guidance for individuals and groups to take informed actions in their communities.
How do we help communities?

Inspiration to Action
The Shared Humanity Project was featured in a four-episode series produced by Public Interest Registry, the operator of the .ORG family of domains. In their words, the .ORG Origins series reveals how “one very special organization - dedicated to eradicating poverty across the United States - has grown from a shared idea to a successful force for good that is making a profound impact on the communities and people that it serves.”
.ORG produced the series to help organizations understand how to identify and utilize the best tools and resources in following their calling and begin their own journey from inspiration to impact.”
