Negotiating the Antipoverty Agenda: Foundations, Community Organizations, and Comprehensive Community Initiatives

Ira Silver

Framingham State College

This analysis looks at how foundations and community organizations jointly formulated antipoverty agendas within the context of a collaboration forged in Chicago between these two groups in the aftermath of the 1992 Los Angeles riots. The study reveals that as foundations exhibited preferences for supporting antipoverty work that they saw as politically safe and uncontroversial, community organizations enticed foundations to expand the range of funding agendas that suited these preferences. This finding is of timely significance given that during the past 2 decades, policy-making responsibility has shifted from the public to the philanthropic sectors.

Key Words: philanthropy • collaboration • foundations • community organizations • comprehensive community initiatives
