DownloadOur Commitment to Economic Justice
In Philadelphia, one in four Black people and 29% of children live in poverty. We are grappling with nearly 13,000 eviction filings in 2023, along with a $57 billion gap in appreciation values between properties in majority-white neighborhoods and non-white neighborhoods. Nationally, there is a $3 trillion racial wealth gap between Black and White Americans, nearly half of which is related to housing disparities.
At Clarifi, we are driven by the belief that social justice cannot be achieved without financial justice—and the opportunity for all people to build assets and wealth beyond just income. We layer resources, services and technical assistance that bolster financial stability and access to affordable housing.
