Moving Mississippi Forward is an RFAA Foundation four-year pilot designed to deliver tangible progress in Mississippi by teaming up with organizations, companies, financial institutions, and individuals. Moving Mississippi Forward will create value for Mississippians that have seen generations of hopelessness despite being a part of the wealthiest country in the world. RFAA’s mission is to empower Mississippi households by changing mindsets and providing them with pathways to independence.
Moving Mississippi Forward will launch in the summer of 2023 and end in the summer of 2027. Mississippi currently leads America in poverty, is home to the highest homicide rate among large cities, has the highest prison incarceration rate per capita, and is home to the worst city to live in, according to 247 wallst.com. RFAA (Restoring Families Across America) pilot focuses on solutions to address the fact that lack of opportunities, broken family units, and crime destroys families.
Many people have left Mississippi and never want to return because they saw no hope. Moving Mississippi Forward will ensure each Mississippian has a solid foundation and understands their value, purpose, and abilities. A solid foundation will change their mindset and give them the transferable hope needed to overcome generations of hopelessness. Mississippi will become a destination for its opportunities and no longer the place you want to leave.
