Our Process
Why LBC Action
Generating positive social change cannot happen without crucial resources like philanthropic funding, policy support, and talent. Because these assets are finite, potential allies may see each as other competitors first, and partners second. However, that scarcity mentality impedes progress and shrinks the overall pool of support available from funders and policymakers. LBC Action was founded in 2018 to reframe that zero-sum outlook and to help leaders in the nonprofit, business, and government sectors adopt a more long-term, rising-tide philosophy.
Fresh Tracks
In late 2015, the Obama Administration issued a call for bold new programs that would use the outdoors to broaden horizons for diverse young Americans facing persistent opportunity gaps. The idea: bring aspiring leaders from urban and Indigenous communities together for a shared experience blending civic engagement, cultural-sharing, and outdoor exploration.
Outdoor Equity Network
Historically, organizations that connect youth to the outdoors have lacked data demonstrating how outdoor-based programming contributes to social sector outcomes. This data gap makes it more difficult for these groups to increase philanthropic and policy support for experiences that may inaccurately be seen as nice to have, but not critical for youth development and wellbeing.
MILITARY FAMILIES OUTDOORS
LBC Action partner Blue Star Families is committed to creating vibrant communities of mutual support for military families. Blue Star Families knew from its own data that the outdoors contributed to social and emotional learning for military families, but needed a partner to scale their outdoor-based programming nationwide.
