The Greenlining Institute is a mid-sized non-profit based in Oakland, California, founded in 1993 with a mission to ensure communities of color have equal access to economic opportunity. It pursues this through advocacy, community and coalition building, research, and leadership development, viewing economic opportunity as interconnected with policy areas such as the economy, environmental policy, and civic engagement. The organization grounds its work in the premise that people of color will be the majority by 2044, shaping a focus on inclusive growth. Its activities are directed at communities of color as well as policymakers and partner organizations, spanning multiple policy domains to address root causes of opportunity gaps. In 2025, The Greenlining Institute named Max Vargas as President and CEO. The same year it launched the Homes Before Highways interactive mapping tool to show where highway expansion has affected homes and businesses across California.
