Economic Mobility Alliance
The Economic Mobility Alliance brings several of our most effective programs under one umbrella to foster greater collaboration and maximize our impact, increasing economic mobility for individuals of all backgrounds throughout every stage of their financial lives. Each of these programs contributes distinct elements toward comprehensive economic opportunity and lasting financial security.
We envision EMA as much larger than merely the sum of the Milken Institute’s existing efforts, as numerous outstanding organizations today are focused on economic mobility. With EMA, we will convene these organizations, and together, we will amplify our collective impact, fostering greater collaboration and advancing solutions more rapidly.
