Housing

People
Goal: Improve educational outcomes and intergenerational mobility for youth with services and supports delivered directly to youth and their families
Neighborhood
Goal: Create the conditions necessary for public and private reinvestment in distressed neighborhoods to offer the kinds of amenities and assets, including safety, good schools, and commercial activity, that are important to families’ choices about their community
