State of the Region: FINGER LAKES 2022 Annual Report

The Finger Lakes Regional Economic Development Council (FLREDC) strategic plan aligns with New York’s statewide four-pronged economic strategy and reflects the comprehensive nature of our region’s industry strengths. On the ground, expertise from the community and private sectors across the region advises our work to ensure clarity in vision and action to keep the Finger Lakes Region moving forward for all.
Over the last ten years the FLREDC has helped address many statewide priority initiatives. Much of that work continues, but this year’s FLREDC annual report includes detailed updates on a few: Workforce Development (including associated barriers like childcare and broadband/digital access), Life Sciences, Downtown Placemaking, and Environmental Justice (as included in the new Economic Justice section later in the report).

ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) may be a relative or friend. You may be ALICE. As cashiers, waiters, child care providers, and other members of our essential workforce, ALICE earns just above the Federal Poverty Level but less than what it costs to make ends meet. These struggling households are forced to make impossible choices each day. While such hardship is pervasive, households of color are disproportionately ALICE.

ALICE also represents the data reshaping the dialogue on financial hardship, and a grassroots movement that is picking up steam across half of U.S. states - and counting.
