Strategies

Establish a non-share capital cooperative model in which fee-paying members can share the communal resources of a grocery, house, or utility cooperative

Provide outreach and support to assist those whose employers do not offer affordable coverage, who are self-employed, or who are unemployed

Engage community members to determine how public budgets are spent, ideally to improve neighborhood conditions and reduce inequality.

Use pervious concrete, porous asphalt, permeable interlocking pavers, open-jointed blocks or cells, or other permeable pavement in individual or commercial development efforts; also called porous or pervious pavement

Establish bioretention systems (e.g., rain gardens, bioretention cells, green roofs, planter boxes, bioswales, etc.) to make city landscapes more permeable to help control stormwater
