A BetterWay Foundation, Connecticut (ABWF-CT) is striving to build community, to shift power, to dismantle oppressive systems while helping justice-centered organizations thrive. 

We believe there is a better way. 

ABWF-CT is led by a collective of organizers that champion racial, gender-based, dis/ability justice, and economic justice. We empower groups historically blocked from decision making. We center and support the work of black, brown, indigenous, and LGBTQIA+ leadership with an emphasis on youth, equity, and education, utilizing anti-racist organizing principles to dismantle and realign systems of power. We support organizations that uplift through political education and communications, illuminating untold narratives to reflect history more accurately and equitably. We help emerging groups transform into robust, sustainable organizations. We strive for political power that leads to reform policy and in practice. From community organizing to movement building, we are a home for collaborative leadership development and fiscal sponsorship. We serve as a support system for Connecticut based groups, interrogating and challenging existing power structures, and as a model for national alignment
