Mayor Woodfin's vision to create new education and career opportunities for students led to the Birmingham Promise, a public-private partnership that provides tuition assistance to cover college costs for Birmingham high school graduates. Apprenticeships also provide students with jobs and career experience to prepare them for post-graduation employment opportunities.
Additionally under Mayor Woodfin's leadership, the city launched the Office of Social Justice and Racial Equity which seeks to employ social justice as a core principle in City of Birmingham policies, operations and decision making.
