CFED is a leading organization in asset building and economic development, collaborating with diverse partners at the national, state and local level. Located in Washington, DC, San Francisco, CA, and Durham, NC, CFED endeavors to ensure that all Americans can participate in, contribute to, and benefit from the economy by bringing together community practice, public policy, and private markets in new and effective ways. We identify promising ideas; test and refine them in communities to find out what works; craft policies and products to help good ideas reach scale, and foster new markets to achieve greater economic impact.
