Economic Opportunity

In recent decades, Chattanooga has experienced a renaissance in its economic growth and quality of life. However, many Chattanoogans have not benefited from this revitalization, nor has it enhanced their prospects for a better life. The future growth and success of our community is dependent on our ability to create a more inclusive economy and shared prosperity for all residents. Benwood supports the leaders and initiatives that will help to ensure that residents from low-income communities and communities of color have the opportunity to engage in and benefit from our community’s continuing growth and development.
