Renewing the American Promise by Measuring the Progress
At Finding Common Purpose (FCP), we are building an outcomes movement. We provide funding and partnership to communities that are committed to sharing measurable outcomes and aligning local efforts so that working Americans can thrive, not just survive.
The Disappearing American Promise
Despite decades of economic growth and expansion, economic opportunity in this country continues to decline. Currently, 64% of people making six figures say they are in “survival mode” rather than wealthy, and more than half say they would need to double their income to feel truly secure. Currently, the average cost of living greatly exceeds the average wage in every state in the country. This is the result of decades of rising costs, stagnant wages, and fraying public systems.
Serving Communities Committed to Long-Term Change
We partner with communities and national leaders who are passionate about tracking outcomes with transparency to drive sustainable and effective outcomes usage across the country, from the local to national level.
We work hand-in-hand with local, place-based partners helping communities align around clearly-defined north star goals that turn measurable outcomes into lasting, on-the-ground progress.
We convene, fund, and collaborate with foundations, field builders, government and researchers to energize a social sector shift towards measurable outcomes and to strengthen efforts to protect and reimagine public data infrastructures in the hopes of restoring long-term economic mobility and well being.
We partner with and speak to national leaders at the forefront of the outcomes movement: thought leaders, subject matter experts, and policy analysts who are passionate about tracking outcomes with transparency to effect real change.
