Hope Street Group is a non-partisan organization founded for one reason:  to build the Opportunity Economy – an economy in which anyone who works hard and invests in themselves has the opportunity to succeed, and where our nation prospers as a result. Over the last two years, Hope Street Group has successfully convened leaders from civil society, politics, and business to build broad-based coalitions and bi-partisan consensus around policies that promote an opportunity economy. As a result of these efforts, Hope Street Group offers numerous opportunities for young professionals to play substantive roles in policy discussions and development.
