Invest STL facilitates investment in the power of people and their neighborhoods to develop communities of justice and opportunity in places that continue to endure the legacy of systemic anti-Black racism. We envision a St. Louis where every neighborhood is a chosen place to live, raise children and grow old. What does that looks like? We work to build up and co-create powerful people, sound investments, worthy places, and durable infrastructure within the St. Louis region. Powerful people - People have the confidence, capacity, authority and resources to envision and create a place that is physically, economically and emotionally worthy of being called home. Sound investments - Property investment is possible and advisable in predominantly Black neighborhoods. Worthy places - Individuals, children, and their parents feel their neighborhoods can be forever homes, worthy of their lifetime, where a well-valued life is possible and where they are offered the freedom to be great or to simply be. Durable infrastructure - Systems organizations, and individuals can sustainably act in alignment with the belief that every person deserves this kind of neighborhood and that anything less is unacceptable.
