About Participatory Budgeting and The NYC Civic Engagement Commission (CEC): The CEC is excited to launch the third year of The People’s Money 2024/25 participatory budgeting process! All New Yorkers age 11 and up, regardless of immigration or incarceration status will be able to decide how to spend part of the city’s budget. Last year, the CEC ran this process for the second time in NYC history, inviting thousands of residents to submit ideas and ultimately vote on programs for their communities. See the funded programs from last year!
- Audience: Adults, 50+, Children, Families, Immigrants, Persons with Disabilities, Persons Without Homes, Teens/Young Adults (13-18 years), Young Adults/Pre GED (16-24 years)
