About Redefine Alliance: 
At Redefine Alliance, we’re building an economy that works. For everyone.

When businesses have the capital and capacity to grow — and when employers, funders, government, and community work together — people can move from economic exclusion toward economic autonomy.

We discover and back social entrepreneurs across the United States that employ people striving to overcome employment barriers like homelessness or incarceration. These mission-driven businesses, called employment social enterprises (ESEs), exist because they see untapped talent in their communities for the strengths they hold, not the barriers they’ve faced. 

That’s why Redefine Alliance invests in their businesses, so we can help push their impact further, faster. We pair our grantmaking with capacity-building support, create space for employment social enterprise leaders to learn together, and sponsor state and federal policies that help shift perspectives. Because we believe that our economy works best when it works for everyone.

Since 1997, Redefine has invested in 399 ESEs in 44 states and D.C., which have generated over $4 billion in revenue and employed more than 176,000 people.
