The Philadelphia Upward Mobility Project is an interagency initiative of the Philadelphia city government intended to alleviate poverty and provide more opportunities for upward mobility for Philadelphia residents. Through this project, Philadelphia will focus on strengthening four key systems behind our antipoverty work: community engagement, data management, performance evaluation, and coordinated benefits-access strategies. Philadelphia strives to be a city where every resident is healthy, is safe, and has economic prosperity and a good quality of life. We aim to be an equitable city that eliminates the barriers to health, safety, and connectedness that exist based on race and ethnicity, disability status, age, and gender identity.
