At Emergence, we believe that communities already hold the solutions to their greatest challenges. With the right tools and resources, people and organizations in the social sector can help bring those solutions to life, creating more equitable and just communities. Our team works with leaders, organizations, and movements to dismantle the systems and barriers that hold communities back.
We support dynamic organizations as they come into being and implement powerful community-driven solutions. Working behind the scenes, we partner with you to create the infrastructure, capacity, and knowledge to accelerate your mission.

“Emergence has been an integral part of our success at Texas Tribal Buffalo Project. Their team helped me take my overarching vision for the Project’s future and break it down into a strategic, step-by-step plan. I’ve been inspired to work with such a strong team of women who are all so driven and passionate about the work that needs to be done for our communities to thrive, not just now but for the next generations. ”
