Description

Join us for the fifth event in our CLP 30th Anniversary Alumni Program, Local Economics: Adapting to Our New Economic Reality.

Join area economic development partners to hear about the current state of the economy, including data around unemployment numbers and the unequal impact of the recession on women and people of color. Our speakers will share how our community has responded to this crisis through a collaborative approach called Project Better Together, and highlight the focus on inclusive economic recovery.
