fighting poverty together
for 10+ years

what we are addressing

Poverty and inequity are not inevitable. Real pathways to stability and opportunity are possible. The Rochester-Monroe Anti-Poverty Initiative (RMAPI) was founded on this belief, working to dismantle oppressive structural systems and expand upward mobility for all.

HOW WE’RE DRIVING CHANGE

Creating pathways to a thriving community means removing the barriers that stand between people and opportunity.

Our Unity Agenda breaks down this vision, offering a roadmap for partners and community members to advance upward mobility for every person in Rochester.

How You Can Help Us Maintain Momentum

Rochester comes out on top when we take collective action to understand and dismantle the structural systems working against us.

No action is too small when we are fighting for our community.
