Well, the large institutions in Newark have bonded together to make that sentiment untrue. Through strategic partnerships between the mayor\u2019s office, locally-based Corporate America firms, and major non-profit organizations, anchor institutions are creating a city that is steeped in equity and inclusivity. Formed six years ago, the Newark Anchor Collaborative has grown from a small group of seven \u201canchors\u201d to a collaborative of 20 \u201canchors\u201d under the Newark Alliance, which has a focus on racial equality and eliminating extreme disparities in wealth, employment, and income amongst residents and the local business community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere are so many opportunities for these institutions to redirect their spending to Newark small businesses and help grow them,\u201d said President and CEO of Newark Alliance Evan Weiss in a PBS interview. \u201cOne way of doing this is to encourage larger businesses to buy local supplies and services. Something as simple as getting their catering orders from Newark small businesses rather than national chains is a victory.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The vision of Newark Alliance is to work collaboratively to cement Newark\u2019s status as one of America\u2019s most diverse, prosperous, exciting, and equitable cities, serving as a national model for inclusive economic growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>TOP 20 FOR INCLUSIVE GROWTH<\/strong><br>These institutions make up the Newark Anchor Collaborative, a community of executive leaders from leading public and private institutions anchored in Newark.
