Growth & Pathways for Small Enterprises
AABCA is a St. Louis-based advocacy and civic organization that fights for fair access to public and private contracts, good jobs in the trades, and accountability for how public development dollars are spent.
THE ISSUES
We champion small business success, hold public projects accountable and build partnerships that open doors.

​We connect residents, especially young people, to training and real jobs in the trades, and we push employers and developers to hire from the North St. Louis neighborhoods and other communities they build in.

​When public dollars build a project, the promises made to small and local businesses must be kept.

From school supply giveaways to tornado recovery, we show up for the families and neighborhoods behind every business.
