The Interaction Institute for Social Change (IISC) is a Boston-based nonprofit that helps individuals, organizations, and networks strengthen collaborative capacity to advance racial equity and social justice. Through consulting services and workshops, it supports processes that promote equitable decision-making, facilitation of convenings, and cross-sector coalitions aimed at systemic change, with a focus on involving those most affected by policies and decisions. The organization emphasizes three lenses—building power with inclusion, leveraging networks for social impact, and using collaborative approaches rooted in transformative values—to shift systems so historically oppressed communities can gain greater access to power and resources. Founded and operating within the nonprofit sector, IISC has collaborated with a range of partners over nearly three decades to model and teach collaboration as a means to accelerate social change, serving partners across communities and organizations seeking relational and structural improvements. A recent partnership highlighted in the organization’s news underscores ongoing collaboration with other entities to pursue joint social change initiatives.
