Our city, our future

At a time of interrelated crises — including economic inequality, racism, and climate chaos — what can a city do? What can a just and sustainable future be like?

This website aims to collect the best thinking about the ways a city government like Cleveland’s can improve the lives of its residents. The goal is to create a thoughtful summary of progressive policy options and inform debates about the city’s future.

We’re currently updating the site to reflect lessons learned from the 2025 Cleveland municipal elections. Check back in 2026 for a new, progressive vision of Cleveland’s future.
