Giving Light

At the Ella Baker Institute (EBI), we live through the wisdom of our namesake: “Give light and people will find the way.”

In honor of Ella Baker’s enduring legacy, EBI was created to provide community-responsive learning experiences centered on catalyzing youth leadership and community well-being. With human-centered expertise that embodies both breadth and depth, we support organizations, schools, and communities in engaging collective power to generate sustainable impact and well-being.
