Center for Community Uplift

Brookings’ Center for Community Uplift (CCU) is an initiative that seeks to increase economic security and well-being for people across racial and geographic lines. Through innovative public policy research, CCU aims to dismantle discrimination, racism, and exclusion. Rather than focus on racial disparity, CCU’s research explores how diversity and inclusion can yield better outcomes for all by building upon the assets and strengths in cities and neighborhoods.
