K.U.S.P. is proud to be a member of The Commonwealth Institute's (TCI) Collective Work Coalition, a network of Black- and Brown-led grassroots organizations dedicated to addressing critical issues such as food access, prison reform, immigration, mental health, and more.
Through this coalition, we collaborate with TCI to elevate the voices and experiences of those we serve, advocating for public policies rooted in racial and economic justice. At K.U.S.P., our focus on increasing food access and emergency preparedness in disadvantaged communities allows us to contribute valuable insights to TCI's work. By sharing what we learn with policy analysts, we help shape credible, accessible fiscal and policy research that reflects the lived realities of Virginia's most impacted communities.
In conversations about Virginia’s future—what issues to prioritize, what solutions are most effective, and who gets to make these decisions—communities of color and those directly impacted are often excluded. That’s why our partnership with TCI centers on ensuring racial equity, economic justice, and the right for all families to live in safe and healthy communities. Together, we champion new laws and policies designed in partnership with our communities, striving to create a Virginia where everyone can thrive, without exception.
