Event Description
Join author, educator and map illustrator John Roman for a discussion of his book, The Art of Illustrated Maps. Roman will show many of the illustrated maps he’s created for advertising and publishing during his career, and reveal how and why the human mind instinctively accepts the artistic license invoked in “not-to-scale” maps. This presentation is sponsored by the Connecticut Map Society.

Meta + LISC Announce $5M Effort to Build Capacity of 20 Community Organizations, Bridging Gaps in Equity + Opportunity
LISC and Meta joined forces on a $5 million effort to build the capacity of 20 community organizations to fuel jobs, housing, health, and economic development in underinvested communities. The program is unique because it provides flexible funding that organizations can use to strengthen staffing and operations, expand community outreach capabilities, and develop fundraising strategies.LISC and Partners Launch “What’s Possible”: A Blueprint for Sustainable American Communities
LISC, Enterprise Community Partners and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York have published What's Possible: Investing NOW for Prosperous, Sustainable Neighborhoods. With contributions from LISC green and financing experts, the volume is a timely and crucial guidebook to equitable green investing and community development and especially timely on the heels of the historic $20 billion in federal investment to expand access to clean energy and climate solutions.Meaningful Engagement: A Key to Equitable Climate Action in Community Development
In her chapter from What’s Possible: Investing NOW for Prosperous, Sustainable Neighborhoods, LISC’s Madeline del Carmen Fraser Cook, who also co-edited the book, explores the imperative of authentic community engagement in the work of supporting historically underinvested places to become more energy efficient and climate resilient. It’s a process that demands insight, bona fide listening and what she describes as “working at the speed of trust.”
