New Economy Project

2020 Award: $200,000

The New Economy Washington Project partnership between Front and Centered, People’s Economy Lab, Washington Budget and Policy Center, and Poverty Action Network will focus on building infrastructure and supporting leaders for a more just and democratic economy. These efforts will: (a) create an experimentation fund to accelerate projects aligned with the New Economy Washington vision, principles, and conditions; (b) support the training and capacity of emerging new economy leaders from communities most impacted by economic inequity; and (c) create a steering committee comprised of people with strong vision for moving this work forward and support staff to move the work.
