Learn more about the Center for Civic Innovation
The Center for Civic Innovation builds and supports networks of people around key community challenges, such as food security and STE(A)M education. Additionally, through a process called Civic Labs, we connect social entrepreneurs to constrained public agencies and nonprofits through pay for performance contracts, reducing risk for the public agency and giving the entrepreneur what they want and need most: a customer. In addition, we provide capacity building services to local governments, nonprofits, and businesses to help them better engage and connect with their local communities.
