Practical, Responsible AI for the Social Sector
A free education project for nonprofits, workforce programs, and the federally funded teams serving communities most underserved by every prior wave of technology.
No hype. Just what works in small and mid-size organizations, what doesn’t, and how to tell the difference before you commit staff time, funder dollars, or participant trust.
Where to Start
Six ways into the work.
Learning Hub
Articles, playbooks, and field reports across five content pillars, organized by role and program type.
Free Resources
Open templates and policies you can download, edit, and ship. Board briefs, staff handbooks, AI use policies.
Grant Funding
A working hub on finding and winning AI-related grant funding from other funders. No gates.
Grant-Funded Programs
Cohorts and pilots we run directly, funded through grants we receive. Participants don’t pay.
Newsletter
Practical guidance for the social sector, on a regular cadence. Free, no upsell.
