Our People
We are building a future where all people—no matter their race and class—have power, choice, and ownership over the economy.
Co-CEOs: Sandhya Nakhasi, Jennifer Njuguna, Jessica Feingold
Common Future is multiracial, women-led, with a staff and board that are both majority people of color. We are audacious, expansive, and unapologetic thinkers and doers who bring lived experience to the problems we tackle.
