A Multistate Approach to Combating Systemic Debt

A Multistate Approach to Combating Systemic Debt

What Grantees Want Fun­ders to Know is a new case study from the Asset Fun­ders Net­work. It high­lights lessons from the South­ern Part­ner­ship to Reduce Debt, a mul­ti­state effort launched by the Annie E. Casey Foun­da­tion in 2017 to help address debt bur­dens faced by fam­i­lies of col­or in the South. 

The Casey-fund­ed study shares lessons for phil­an­thropists. It checks in on debt-reduc­tion work in the South as well as the for­ma­tion of the part­ner­ship and strate­gies that cre­at­ed local pol­i­cy change. The effort, which was imple­ment­ed across six states — Alaba­ma, Geor­gia, North Car­oli­na, South Car­oli­na, Ten­nessee and Texas — con­cludes in 2025.
