New Report – Growing with Equity: Philadelphia’s Vision for Inclusive Growth

Posted by City of Philadelphia Office of the Mayor on May 7, 2019

The City of Philadelphia has released its new economic development plan, Growing with Equity: Philadelphia’s Vision for Inclusive Growth. It outlines how the city will address three key goals:

  • Grow the economy to create family-sustaining jobs for all Philadelphians
  • Prepare Philadelphians for jobs that pay family-sustaining wages
  • Encourage equitable growth in neighborhoods without displacement

Our city has recently experienced multiple years of consistent population and job growth, and this plan will help us harness our momentum to ensure that future success benefits people in every corner of the city.

The inclusive growth report outlines our strategies to enable growth with equity, focused on three key areas: jobs, talent, and neighborhoods. The plan ties together both current and new initiatives.
