Many Americans today live in socioeconomic silos. Neighborhoods, schools, and even sports leagues offer few opportunities for connection between people of different financial status. As communities remain economically stratified, it is easy for Americans to be surrounded primarily by those who share the same class background.

The Çï¿ûÊÓƵ launched a new resource to help bridge these divides. Speakers discussed why economic connectedness matters and how everyone can get involved in fostering the cross-class relationships that our economy and our democracy need.  

This work is part of the Çï¿ûÊÓƵ’s Commission on Reimagining Our Economy, whose final report calls for more economically connected communities.
