What corealign does

CoreAlign is a nonprofit organization founded in 2016 and headquartered in Oakland, California, that operates as a fiscally-sponsored project of the New Venture Fund, a 501(c)(3) public charity. Its mission is to address internal and external barriers facing the reproductive health, rights, and justice movement by shifting culture toward innovation, collaboration, and impact, and by supporting people fighting for the resources, rights, and respect for their sexual and reproductive lives.

The organization delivers its work through three interconnected program areas: Leadership Development (fellowships, experiential learning, and workshops focused on innovation, resilience, and radical collaboration), Field Building (relationship-building with local organizers, particularly in the Central and Southern United States), and Network Building (connecting leaders across an extended network for collaboration). Signature offerings include the Generative Fellowship program, which has trained more than 100 leaders, and the Speaking Race to Power program. Over four years, CoreAlign reports having created space for approximately 800 leaders to practice risk-taking.

CoreAlign does not sell products or services and does not charge participants for its programming. Its revenue model is philanthropic: the organization is funded through grants and donations channeled via its fiscal sponsor, the New Venture Fund, which provides administrative infrastructure, financial management, and compliance oversight. The go-to-market motion is community-led, relying on direct relationships, fellowships, workshops, and a website/mailing-list presence rather than paid acquisition. No technology stack, AI capabilities, or commercial pricing model are disclosed, consistent with a pure nonprofit movement-building operating model.
