Public Policy

The City Project believes that all people should have access to healthy, livable communities. Our multicultural, Latino-led team works with diverse allies to ensure equal access to (1) healthy green land use through planning by and for the community; (2) physical education and schools of hope as centers of their communities; (3) health equity and wellness; and (4) economic vitality for all, including jobs and avoiding displacement as communities become greener and more desirable. Our mission is equal justice, democracy, and livability for all.As the next generation civil rights advocates, we pursue myriad strategies. We are problem solvers who use many of the same strategies that corporate or transactional lawyers use on behalf of their clients: planning, data collection and analysis, media, negotiation, policy advocacy, and coalition building are all part of a comprehensive problem-solving strategy. We join forces with clients, experts, and broader coalitions to seek equity and overcome structural barriers to a more equitable society. Our work can be framed as promoting new partners for smart growth, equitable development, ecosystem services, and compliance with civil rights and environmental justice policies and laws.
