Progress by the numbers

4 PILLARS COLORCODED-04
Enhanced Livability Progress

ENHANCE OUR REGION'S LIVABILITY

Enhancing the region’s livability starts by building community pride. It also requires a dedication to improving the region’s infrastructure – from bridges to broadband to bike lanes – and identifying creative approaches to funding livability initiatives. As these investments take shape and pride in the community grows, the region’s actual and perceived livability should also improve. 

Our GOAL

0%

Boost positive perceptions of the
Baton Rouge area by 20%,
going from 39% to 47%

POSITIVE PERCEPTIONS FOCUS

Based on stakeholder input, the Baton Rouge Area suffers from an overall negative perception of itself. Eliminating this narrative will have positive effects on the region’s ability to attract talent and businesses. This outcome leverages the work of all of the BRING IT! initiatives to bring more positivity to the Baton Rouge Area. Its progress will be measured by local and national perception studies. 

PROGRESS ON PRIORITIES

Under each of BRAC’s four focus areas, high-level strategic priorities were identified to achieve the large goals, then metrics of success were recommended for each priority to help track progress. 

In this dashboard, you will find progress reports on those recommended metrics.
