FAQs

Got a question? We’re here to help.

  • Are there not more important issues facing the U.S. at this time?

    There is no argument that the U.S. and perhaps the globe are facing many weighty issues.


    This effort in no way intends to disparage dedicated efforts regarding those issues. 


    There is likely no objective measure of the most important issues. 


    Engagement and dedicated effort in any cause is always somewhat of a choice and personal

    preference.

  • What are the activities of the center?

    A central activity in our first year will be to assess the larger landscape of existing advocacy efforts. It will be important for the center to identify, differentiate and complement its function from existing efforts. We hope to serve as an informational portal for the diversity of advocacy efforts. We may also hold forums for community members to learn, engage and discuss the various issues related to wealth and income inequality. Longer term, we hope to provide financial support to various advocacy efforts locally or nationally,

  • How will the center maintain, who and how will momentum continue?

    Engagement with the community in the way of moral support and participation on our board. 


    Of course, fundraising will be critical. 


    You will find a donate button on this site at the top of the page.

  • Will the center provide services to groups or communities?

    It is not the intention to provide direct services. 


    The objective is to focus upstream on the causes of income and wealth disparity and potential remedies. 


    However, it is possible that services may be considered in the future.

  • How will decisions be made?

    Incorporation by-laws outline how decisions are made by the board of directors. 


    Our mission, values, beliefs and objectives and their continued refinement will guide the board’s decision making.

  • Will advocacy efforts be supported?

    Efforts and activities for change are a central function of this center consistent with governing law related to non-profit status.

  • What are the advocacy efforts?

    You will find a drop-down menu of the various  advocacy efforts which will be a focus for the center. 


    These efforts of course, may expand or modify as we learn more about the larger landscape.

  • How will you know if you are being effective?

    That is an important and critical question. 


    We are interested in making an impact but how to measure the impact is wide open. 


    The answer to this is question will be uncertain for the near future. 


    The answer will likely lie somewhere between a quantitative and qualitative assessment of our own advocacy support.
