The Executives' Alliance to Expand Opportunities for Boys and Men of Color, a network of more than 40 national, regional, and local foundations, has taken aggressive action to improve life outcomes for America's boys and men of color in communities throughout the country. Member institutions of the Executives' Alliance have collectively awarded millions of dollars in the past year to improve education outcomes, reduce incarceration, ensure police accountability, and bolster job readiness.
This report provides selected highlights of some these investments, activities, and impacts.
