Economic Mobility

The Problem

Talent is equally distributed across our city — but opportunity is not. Too many Angelenos are not afforded the skills or the chances they need to succeed. We need to fix our education system, grow good jobs, and make sure everyone can participate in LA's economy.

The Solution

We have a clear opportunity to leverage technology and innovative programming to strengthen our education system, better train our working-age residents, and provide more economic opportunities. We can bring Hollywood back and attract new industries to significantly grow the number of good jobs in the region. Economic mobility is directly tied to making rent affordable, improving vibrancy, and building a city that works for everyone through innovation.
