City of Los Angeles

The Mayor’s Innovation Team (i-team) works with L.A. City departments to closely examine complex challenges and discover innovative solutions that can improve the quality of life in Los Angeles. The L.A. i-team will partner with J-PAL North America to design an evaluation of a program that helps job seekers better access employment services at the City's WorkSource Centers. The i-team seeks to apply behavioral science techniques and use technology to support job seekers, increase usage of the centers’ resources, and improve job placements that create opportunities for Angelenos and lift families out of poverty.
