Advancing Residents' Upward Mobility by Fostering Dignity and Belonging, Economic Success, and Power and Autonomy

Join this interactive session to explore the Urban Institute’s Upward Mobility Framework, a research-backed model designed to advance upward mobility and racial equity for individuals and communities. This framework provides local leaders a holistic definition of upward mobility and identifies factors they can influence to increase mobility for all people, especially those historically excluded from prosperity.

During the workshop, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the three interconnected dimensions of upward mobility: dignity and belonging, economic success, and power and autonomy. We’ll provide practical insights and strategies to implement in your community.

In this session, speakers from organizations applying the Upward Mobility Framework to shape programming and policymaking will offer valuable insights to help improve the lives of residents and create lasting change.
