In 2022, we joined the Bond Markets and Racial Equity Project, led by the Public Finance Initiative, in collaboration with other national partners to support governments and other stakeholders who want to leverage municipal bond markets as a catalyst for changing racially inequitable conditions. This website includes tools and other resources we created together throughout this program, and features strategies from select cities we’ve engaged with and worked with in this program. The project is supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, but the views expressed are those of program team members and participants.
