ICMA Economic Mobility and Opportunity Cohort members representing Chesterfield County, Virginia, tell us about boosting economic mobility for their residents through providing micro-conferences focusing on workforce development, financial literacy, and childcare services.
ICMA’s Economic Mobility and Opportunity (EMO) Cohort is a unique and rare networking opportunity for ICMA members to receive training, technical assistance, and funding to inform policies and effect conditions that promote overall well-being and upward mobility for their residents. This opportunity is made possible with support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Ten communities have been selected to be members through a process that gauged readiness to implement EMO-centered strategies through policies, practices, processes, and programs.
