Local First Arizona is a nonprofit organization committed to community and economic development throughout Arizona. Our work connects people, locally-owned businesses, and communities for meaningful actions that build a diverse, inclusive and prosperous Arizona economy, including:

• Educating consumers about the interconnectedness of the economy — how and where they spend matters.
• Training small businesses to be more resilient, while helping our larger partners tell their story as champions of Arizona.
• Creating programs and events that make it fun and easy to discover local businesses and buy local.
• Targeting systems of inequity and building prosperity for all Arizonans by proactively identifying comprehensive solutions and taking action.
