Good Work Institute

The Good Work Institute exists to build and amplify the collective power of people to reject systems of oppression and extraction and create regenerative, just, and life-affirming communities.

Our work is guided by these five principles of Just Transition:

• Relocalizing economic power
• Driving racial justice and social equity
• Democratizing communities, wealth and work
• Advancing ecological repair
• Retaining and restoring cultural diversity

We hold reverence for the Earth as our shared home and we align with the definition of economy as “managing our shared home.” We believe in the transformative potential of being deeply connected to our places, so we focus regionally, in and around the Mahicantuck Valley, also known as the Hudson Valley of NY. 

We are a Worker Self Directed Nonprofit organization.
