Balancing

Balancing Act provides online simulation tools designed for government entities to enhance public engagement in critical decision-making processes. It allows residents to interact with budget models, understand financial constraints, and provide informed input on resource allocation, housing, climate, and planning initiatives. The platform aims to foster transparency and accountability by showing citizens how their tax dollars are spent and enabling them to prioritize projects. This suite of tools helps government leaders make difficult choices by collecting structured, informed feedback from the community. It moves beyond traditional surveys by offering interactive simulations and prioritization exercises, allowing residents to experience the trade-offs involved in public finance. This approach builds trust, educates the public on financial realities, and provides valuable data for decision-makers.
