FIELDWORKS
Creating affordable housing... strengthening communities... helping people
move from welfare to work...
It takes good ideas to make progress on tough issues like these.
Designed for housing and community development professionals, FieldWorks
talks about the people and programs on the frontlines of the struggle to
build stronger communities. And, each bimonthly issue features websites in
areas of concern and lists upcoming events to boost your professional
development.
Ideas featured in this month's issue:
* From blight to community asset. Old storefronts, long neglected, could
become new source of affordable housing.
* Faith and science work together. Bethel New Life and Argonne National
Labs collaborate to revitalize Chicago's West Garfield Community.
* "Harmony" speaks many languages. "Harmony House"--new, affordable,
rental development in Los Angeles' "Little Tokyo"-- serves 17 ethnic groups
speaking 12 languages.
* It's more than shelter. In this New York City residence, women recovering
from drug addiction are reunited with their children and get back on their
feet again.
* Find resources to fight homelessness -- on the Internet.
* And, don't miss FieldWorks' calendar of events.
FieldWorks subscriptions are available for $15/year: six bimonthly issues.
