2021 Madison People's Budget


The 2021 Madison People's Budget is OUT!!! We gathered data from over 1,500 Madison residents and asked them to weigh in on the most crucial social structures at stake in next year’s city budget. We asked Madisonians about the kinds of resource investments they want to see in THEIR COMMUNITIES. We then held a number of community meetings to hear particularly from Black, Southeast Asian and other POC folks on their budgeting priorities. The linked PDF below is compatible with screen readers and includes tables and alt text for accessibility!
