Forward / Patrick L. Phillips -- Preface / Janis Bowdler -- Preface Equity: a natural step in the evolution of cities / Henry Cisneros -- Acknowledgments -- Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Why cities should focus on economic mobility -- Chapter 3: Place-based strategies -- Chapter 4: People-based strategies -- Chapter 5: Developing strategic plans -- Appendix: Measures for tracking outcomes -- Notes.
"How can cities promote economic mobility, advance equity, and drive growth? Through an analysis of best practices, proven policies, and case study examples, you will get practical insights into how your community can expand opportunity for more citizens and boost economic expansion. The book provides real world examples of both place-based and people-based strategies that are being used successfully to provide more equitable outcomes. See how local government and business leaders are working together to improve services in underserved neighborhoods, to add affordable housing to neighborhoods with high-quality services, and to strengthen education, workforce, and financial outcomes for all -- and how these efforts are paying off in terms of economic growth for the region. In addition to benefiting from the sharing of lessons learned, readers will come away with replicable tools, techniques, and processes." -- Publisher's description
