Corporation of National & Community Service Initiative

June 22 - Sept 11, 2009

This is an extraordinary moment in time. As Americans, we have a unique opportunity to come together and solve our nation's most vexing problems. In this spirit, President Obama is announcing a nationwide service initiative, please visit www.serve.gov for more details.

 

Tipping Neighborhoods to Success

The Washington office of UNCA and the Alliance has released a new report on the Obama administration's proposed Promise Neighborhoods initiative. Modeled after the Harlem Children's Zone, the proposal would provide funding for comprehensive school and community-based programs in 20 neighborhoods across the nation (initially, perhaps more later on) to help children reach college and to transform the communities they live in.

 
We are creating a new email list to share information with interested organizations about this federal initiative . This invitation is not limited to UNCA or Alliance members (although some information will only be shared with them, membership has its privileges after all). The new list will be used to distribute both legislative news and also news about how to apply for, or connect to, any related grants (probably a little later down the line). To be added to this new Neighborhood Initiatives Email List, please contact me or reply to this email.
 
Our new report can be found here:
 
Tipping Neighborhoods to Success

To Succeed, Promise Neighborhoods Must Address People and Communities As A Whole
