The Harwood Institute for Public Innovation

Founded by Richard C. Harwood over 35 years ago in reaction to the cynicism and distrust that permeates much of politics and public life, The Harwood Institute is today a leading change organization, recognized nationally for a unique approach to bridging divides and empowering people to make progress in improving their communities through a process of community-led, community-drive change.

Rich spent the last year crisscrossing the country on our “Enough. Time to Build.” campaign in juxtaposition to the 2024 political campaigns. Instead of dividing people, we found ways to bring people together.

In community after community, people wanted to know how to move forward.

So we’re doubling down. This next phase is all about getting on the new civic path—and we want you to come with us. Let’s go together and create real, substantive change in our communities and this country. Read The New Civic Path to take the first step.
