Measuring What Matters: Understanding Economic Stability and Mobility in Philadelphia (presentation slides)
The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia recently conducted research on economic mobility showing that for many before they consider a pathway up the economic ladder, they need to create a stable floor. Join Federal Reserve researchers and colleagues from United for ALICE to talk about how we measure the economic insecurity many are experiencing in our regions, and how we can leverage that data to inform policy.
