FUSE is a national nonprofit dedicated to increasing the capacity of local governments to work more effectively for communities. We embed private sector executives in city and county agencies to lead projects that improve public services and accelerate systems change. Since 2012, FUSE has led over 400 projects in 58 governments across 26 states, impacting a total population equivalent to 1 in 10 Americans. Our work centers on an executive fellowship model. We work with government and community partners to identify high-priority opportunities to address local needs. We then conduct a full executive search for each individual fellowship, looking within the community and nationally to find top leaders. These FUSE Executive Fellows are then embedded in government agencies working with senior leaders for at least one year of full-time work in pursuit of project goals. Our projects address today’s most pressing challenges and opportunities, including affordable housing, economic mobility, climate resilience, public safety, infrastructure, technology, and more. Our work builds lasting change on the ground as well as scalable models for adoption in other communities. We are dedicated to sharing what we learn to inspire others.
