 Who We Are 


 


 Founded in 2008 by Laura and John Arnold with the launch of
 a foundation, the philanthropy is dedicated to improving the lives of 
all Americans through evidence-based policy solutions that maximize 
opportunity and minimize injustice. 


 What We Do 


 


 We focus on broken systems where outcomes are falling 
short, incentives are misaligned, and the time is right for change. We 
fund research to better understand the root causes of problems and build
 the evidence about what works and what doesn't to inform policy 
solutions. We advocate for policy reforms at all levels of government 
and build durable, bipartisan coalitions to drive lasting change and 
impact.


 How We Are Different 


 


 We believe philanthropy is uniquely positioned to take 
risks and make big bets in ways the public and private sectors are often
 unable or unwilling to do. We approach philanthropy as an engine for 
innovation that can help catalyze new solutions and advocate for public 
policies that maximize opportunity and minimize injustice for all.
