A New, Expanded View
To ensure the state’s long-term economic health, Connecticut leaders must expand the number of issues that they consider to be directly tied to the state’s economic success.
This report maps out the findings and recommendations of groups in various sectors — government, business, philanthropic and nonprofit — that have examined what it will take to build a stronger Connecticut. It calls for new policies and ideas that will foster collaboration and improve the well-being of all residents, including the state’s low-income working families.
This publication draws from a collection of 18 reports that consider Connecticut’s challenges and offer recommendations for strengthening the state’s future. Many of these reports come to similar conclusions, and they issue a collective warning that Connecticut — stymied by a lack of concerted action — is losing time as well as ground.
