Congratulations to Regina Lewis (director of research at Black Yarn) and Shereline Redden (owner of the Preservation Firm, LLC) for winning the 2026 #JustEconomy Story Contest.

Register now to join the winners and more than 1,000 community, policy, government, business and foundation leaders who will gather to make a just economy a national priority and a local reality.
A big THANK YOU to all who shared their stories of persistence! Stay tuned as we feature these stories after the conference and hope to see you in April.
