New America Chicago
New America Chicago is a nonpartisan policy innovation lab and local hub of New America. Based at The Chicago Community Trust, we tackle challenges facing Illinois communities and partner with New America’s DC teams to shape federal and regional policy recommendations grounded in lived experience.
We connect people in underinvested communities, across racial and political divides, directly to policymakers and those in power. We convene community leaders, thought leaders, policymakers, and other stakeholders committed to finding practical solutions to local challenges related to work, income, and inequity.

Digital Futures
The Digital Futures initiative investigates how rapid technological change is reshaping global competition, governance, and human rights. We bring together an international task force of researchers and technologists to map digital harms and develop principles for equitable, sustainable digital governance. Through symposia, reports, and collaborative research, our work illuminates pathways to ensure that technology advances human rights, promotes inclusive development, and reduces global inequalities.
