Event Description

Greetings!  

Following up on our December 8th New Haven Promise Zone Community Forum and as a kick-off to the next phase of planning for community transformation, we are inviting those who have been involved in the New Haven Promise Zone initiative to come together to break bread and build our connections on: 

Tuesday, February 10 from 4:00-6:00 PM at the 

Immanuel Baptist Church Hall, 1324 Chapel Street, New Haven. 

This will be both a celebration of many new and ongoing initiatives and innovations in New Haven and an opportunity to get to know each other and our work.  

The event will include an exploratory conversation in small groups on how we can work together differently going forward to create secure and empowering relationships for the people who depend on us as community agencies and leaders.  

We will also present briefly plans for the next phase of work on the City Transformation Plan that will get underway in February.   

We want to acknowledge and promote the sense of New Haven as a caring, loving place with a long tradition of social justice and a commitment to equity.  I hope you can join us. 

Please use this form to RSVP to let us know if you will attend.

New Report: A Close Look at the Reality of Community Violence Interrupters

Dr. Kathryn Bocanegra and Dr. Shani Buggs, eminent researchers and experts on the work of community violence intervention, have published, together with LISC, Supporting the Frontline Through Community Healing: Advancing Science on Violence Intervention Outreach and Trauma Exposure. The study, focused on safety efforts in Kansas City, MO, is a deeply researched and compassionate look at the trauma CVI workers confront every day and how to support the field so that practitioners “are protected from the same harms they work to prevent.”

“A Gateway for Possibilities”: Resident Leadership and Community Ownership

LISC's Institute for Community Power has published a new Spotlight examining three leadership development programs designed and implemented by LISC and local partners for distinct communities in different parts of the country: Training the Trainers (T4T) in Houston; the Newark Resident Leadership Academy (NRLA); and Community Connectors in Philadelphia. Each group has leveraged the leadership program to inform and strengthen their work and, in turn, to serve their communities more effectively.

Mobile Home Residents in Washington State Are Calling the Shots After Buying Their Park

Manufactured housing, which 20 million Americans call home, is one of the few affordable housing options in the United States. The residents of two Washington State mobile home communities recently succeeded in purchasing their parks with help from ROC USA and over $2 million in financing from Rural LISC. As a result, they have been able to stabilize their housing costs, upgrade their communities and remain in the places they love.
