Welcome to The New Hood!
The New Hood develops community-based public policy to building thriving urban Black and Brown neighborhoods. We envision a world where Black and Brown neighborhoods are thriving decades into the future.
Based at The New School, The New Hood aligns with the university’s legacy of heterodox intellectual thought and defiance of tradition. As a community-based policy center rooted in Black and Brown communities, The New Hood disrupts the think tank space. What better home for an unconventional think tank than at an unconventional university?
Our Core Strategies
- Incubate policy ideas of people from the hood
- Educate people in the community on policy and government
- Elevate policy perspectives and voices of folks form the hood
Join us on the journey with a contribution to our 2025 Giving Day campaign!
Your support makes a difference in doing the work:
- Partnering with community-based practitioners to develop, refine, and launch their policy ideas
- Educating community members on policy and government
- Illuminating the work of community-based violence prevention professionals in New York City and around the country
- Producing research and reports that reflect the varied experiences of people from the hood
We believe that a new hood is possible with the space to dream it and the tools to achieve it. With your support, together we can change public policy and build a new hood for future generations.
