FFI'S MISSION IS GROUNDED IN THREE TRUTHS: FIRST, WE'RE ALL HARDWIRED FOR WELLBEING - THE COMBINATION AND BALANCE OF ELEMENTS ESSENTIAL FOR EVERY PERSON TO HAVE HEALTH, HOPE AND RESILIENCE. SECOND, WE DON'T ALL GET THE SAME ACCESS TO WELLBEING, AND THE RESULT IS GROWING GAPS IN HEALTH, WEALTH AND THRIVING. THIRD, WE CAN FIX THIS, IF WE -- GOVERNMENT, NEIGHBORS, BUSINESSES AND SERVICES-- PUT WELLBEING AT THE CENTER OF THE DECISIONS WE MAKE, FROM BIG PUBLIC POLICY, TO HOW WE BUILD NEIGHBORHOODS, TO HOW POLICE AND NEIGHBORS INTERACT. FROM THESE THREE SIMPLE STATEMENTS COME WHOLE NEW WAYS OF UNDERSTANDING CHALLENGES, AND WHOLE NEW WAYS OF ADDRESSING THEM. OUR WORK SHIFTS POWER, POLICY AND NARRATIVES, CATALYZING TRANSFORMATIONAL CHANGE BY SEEDING A MOVEMENT OF UNLIKELY ALLIES WHO UNDERSTAND HOW NEW PERSPECTIVES CAN LEAD TO NEW RESPONSES. FFI'S IMPACT INCLUDES DURABLE POLICY AND STRUCTURAL CHANGE IN FIELDS RANGING FROM HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS TO JUVENILE JUSTICE, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT, HEALTHCARE, VIOLENCE PREVENTION AND THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT. FFI'S COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS HAVE CREATED NEW AVENUES FOR THOSE PROXIMATE TO SYSTEMIC HARMS TO FUNDAMENTALLY SHIFT THE ORIENTATION OF ANTI-VIOLENCE, COURT AND OTHER SYSTEMS. IN OCTOBER 2024, THE BOARD OF FULL FRAME INITIATIVE VOTED TO INITIATE A RESPONSIBLE, IMPACTFUL WIND-DOWN OF THE ORGANIZATION'S OPERATIONS, TARGETING A SPRING 2025 CLOSURE. THE DECISION WAS INFORMED BY SEVERAL EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL FACTORS. AMONG THEM WAS A DETERMINATION TO DEFY THE NORMS OF TYPICAL NONPROFIT CLOSURES, WHICH CAN BE SUDDEN, HARMFUL, AND FISCALLY IRRESPONSIBLE. IN THE TWO AND A HALF REMAINING MONTHS OF FY2024, FULL FRAME INITIATIVE IMMEDIATELY BEGAN SECURING RESOURCES, SUPPORTING ITS TEAM, AND COMMUNICATING OPENLY WITH PARTNERS ABOUT WHAT CLOSURE COULD, AND SHOULD, LOOK LIKE. TOGETHER, THE ORGANIZATION'S STAKEHOLDERS BEGAN TO DEVELOP A PLAN TO TRANSITION THE ORGANIZATION'S MISSION TO A NATIONAL NETWORK OF ALLIES AND CHAMPIONS. BEGINNING IN FY25, FULL FRAME INITIATIVE WILL FULLY IMPLEMENT THIS PLAN IN ANTICIPATION OF EFFECTIVELY CEASING PROGRAMMATIC OPERATIONS IN MAY 2025 AND ADMINISTRATIVE FUNCTIONS LATER IN THE YEAR, AFTER WHICH TIME THE BOARD WILL INITIATE A DISSOLUTION OF THE CORPORATION. YOU CAN READ MORE AT FULLFRAMEINITIATIVE.ORG FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A, ORGANIZATION PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: OUR STRATEGY HAS THREE ELEMENTS THAT WE ACTIVATE SIMULTANEOUSLY: 1)WE SURFACE AND BUILD NETWORKS AMONG DECISION-MAKERS AND ALLIES WHO SHARE OUR CONVICTION AND WHO HAVE HIGH DEGREES OF INFLUENCE. THESE "FIRST MOVER" CHANGEMAKERS ARE ESSENTIAL PARTNERS IN THE SECOND TWO STRATEGIES. 2)WITH THOSE WHO ARE THOUGHT LEADERS, WE REFRAME PROBLEMS AND SURFACE NEW SOLUTIONS USING THE LENS OF WELLBEING EQUITY. TOGETHER, WE BRING THIS NEW FRAME TO NATIONAL AUDIENCES. EVENTS, PUBLICATIONS, AND ENGAGEMENTS HELP SURFACE NEW CHAMPIONS AND OPPORTUNITIES TO TAKE THE REFRAME FURTHER. 3)WITH THOSE WHO ARE DECISION-MAKERS, WE JOIN WITH IMPACTED COMMUNITIES TO DRIVE CHANGES IN POLICY AND PRACTICE THAT DIRECTLY IMPACT PEOPLE'S LIVES. THESE PARTNERSHIPS SHAPE HOW GOVERNMENT DOLLARS ARE SPENT, WHERE CONCRETE IS POURED, AND WHO GETS TO FEEL WELCOME IN PUBLIC SPACES. THEY MAKE THE REFRAMING "REAL AND PROVE WHAT'S POSSIBLE. PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS FOR 2024 INCLUDE: - IMPLEMENTED OUR WELLBEING INSIGHTS ASSETS AND TRADEOFFS TOOL IN TWO CITIES, CLEVELAND, OH, AND KINGSTON, NY.

LOUIS COUNTY FAMILY COURTS; DOMESTIC AND SEXUAL VIOLENCE AGENCIES AROUND THE COUNTRY; SIGNERS TO THE WELLBEING BLUEPRINT). - ADVANCED OUR NATIONAL VISIBILITY THROUGH NEW CAMPAIGNS, PRESENCE AT NATIONAL CONFERENCES, AND INCREASED VOLUME OF WRITING AND THOUGHT LEADERSHIP. - THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, FFI REGULARLY CONDUCTS FIVE DOMAINS OF WELLBEING TRAININGS AND PRESENTATIONS FOR COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS AND INDUSTRY ASSOCIATIONS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES AND CREATES TOOLKITS AND EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS.
