Welcome to the Community Benefits Leadership Network!

There is a movement growing across the country of local elected and appointed officials who recognize that economic development with community benefits can transform local economies and create shared prosperity. At the Partnership for Working Families, we've enjoyed the opportunity to get to know many of you and the impressive--often courageous--work you're doing in your cities. With this web page, we hope to further support your efforts and connect you to each other.

With your input, this site will become a valuable resource for officials who are interested in learning more about community benefits. Over time, we'd like this site to become interactive, giving you the opportunity to share ideas about community benefits and ask questions of each other. If you have ideas about what this page should include, please contact Jennifer Steffel Johnson at the Partnership.

The links below will connect you to information about community benefits on our website, as well as other resources useful for city officials.
