Our Approach

Policy and Advocacy

Overview

In order to achieve economic and social mobility for all community members and eliminate inequities that were amplified due the COVID-19 pandemic, Partners are committed to working towards changes and improvements at all levels, including policy, legislation, and public funding.

The Partnership monitors local, state, and federal policy, legislation, and public funding that impact their shared priorities and goals. They also take action around policy needs lifted by other leadership tables within the network impacting their collective work.
