About This Cause
Accelerator for America finds and develops solutions to economic insecurity and shares them with cities to create national change from the ground up. It was co-founded by Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti in 2017 around the idea that while Washington is broken and has, in fact, been broken for some time, change is still needed and can be made at the local level. The Accelerator has since developed community wealth-building tools that are being used by more than 70 cities nationwide, and it has helped local communities generate more than $30 billion in funding for transit and transportation infrastructure through local ballot initiatives. It developed a financial assistance model to help people who lost income as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic that is being adapted by 11 cities nationwide.
