Story
Forward Together New Orleans is dedicated to helping all the people of New Orleans. Our goal is to make the city a fairer, more inclusive place - a city of opportunity for all. We work toward this goal by forging partnerships between community organizations and the business and philanthropic sectors. These partnerships are meant to improve the lives of New Orleanians in every corner of the city.
Forward Together New Orleans has evolved into an effort to bridge the public and private sectors and address New Orleans’ most pressing challenges. FTNO’s thematic focus is on health care, economic development, public safety, infrastructure and inclusive communities. The Forward Together New Orleans Board is uniquely suited to help respond to the pandemic and its ensuing health disparities. Board members include Eric Griggs, M.D., Dr. Silas Lee, and Dr. Kathleen Kennedy. Liana Elliott, Deputy Chief of Staff to Mayor Cantrell, serves as liaison to the board from the city.
Founded to reflect the collaborative, grassroots leadership Mayor LaToya Cantrell has brought to City Hall, the goal is for FTNO to thrive long past her tenure in office, a vehicle that offers nonprofit, partnership support to future New Orleans mayors.
