At Funders Together for Housing Justice, we know that advancing housing justice requires both courage and clarity. We are living in a political moment where attacks on racial justice, equity, and democracy are constant—and where philanthropy must decide not only what to fund, but also what to fight. 

That’s why we’ve embraced the Block & Build framework, first shared in Convergence Magazine as an advocacy and grantmaking strategy  The framework challenges us to block harmful systems, narratives, and policies that perpetuate injustices, while simultaneously building new structures, practices, and pathways toward liberation, justice, and thriving communities.
