PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Long-term corporate value is built on equity, accountability, and respect for human rights. The Social Justice Program works with investors and companies to embed these principles into core business strategy. By integrating diversity, inclusion, and justice across operations, companies strengthen performance, reduce material risk, and contribute to a more stable and equitable economy.
“Our goal is to ensure that corporate practices advance racial equity and uphold the wellbeing of frontline communities. ”
Research from Capturing the Diversity Benefit report shows that diversity, equity, and inclusion drive stronger financial performance, improved governance, and higher shareholder returns. As You Sow advances lasting corporate change through direct collaboration with executives. Our team compels companies to develop and implement business models that protect long-term shareholder value while advancing social equity and human rights.
Justice and profitability are mutually reinforcing. They are interconnected conditions for sustainable business. As You Sow equips investors and companies with practical tools to manage social risk, set targets, and report progress that stakeholders can verify, and align long-term success with fairness and accountability.
The program focuses on three key areas where social justice and corporate performance meet:
• Racial Justice
• Environmental Justice
• Workplace Equity
Together, these initiatives help companies and investors link equity to strategy, ensure transparency, and build a more resilient and inclusive economy.
