Incubating social action projects that bridge divides.
For four decades, Mediators Foundation has supported and enhanced the work of America’s leading bridge-builders and civic thought leaders.
When you read about the many issues dividing America, you may wonder: who is working to bridge these divides?
We are.
Mediators Foundation does this invisible work quietly and without fanfare. We help a new generation of civic change agents test and launch their initiatives. We also initiate new projects that strengthen the bridge-building field’s ability to address some of the deeper issues of our time.
Our Mission…
is to be a home for innovative initiatives that bring people together across divides and build a more collaborative civic ecosystem.
We do this by fiscally sponsoring a portfolio of nonpartisan bridge-building projects, and by launching initiatives that strengthen the civic field as a whole.
Our Vision…
is a society where everyone can thrive and our differences are a source of strength.
