The Perrin Family Foundation, based in New Haven, CT, has announced that it will be closing its doors on September 30, 2023, after 28 years of working with non-profits and philanthropic organizations across Connecticut. The decision to dissolve the foundation was made due to irresolvable governance issues within the family, and the founders express regret for any harm and confusion caused to staff and community partners.
Throughout its existence, the Perrin Family Foundation has been dedicated to investing in the power of youth organizing and youth-led social change, with a focus on supporting and guiding others into the future. Despite the closure, the foundation's mission and vision of building youth power for social and racial justice remain strong, and they express gratitude to their grantee partners and the youth across the state who have stood up and spoken out on racial and social injustice in Connecticut.
