Community Development

 

Healthy Neighborhoods Initiative
Supported with funding from the Greater Milwaukee Foundation, the Healthy Neighborhoods Initiative is an approach to community development that provides the tools needed to sustain and strengthen strong neighborhoods that are vulnerable to downward trends in property values, safety, and home ownership.
 
Healthy Neighborhoods helps strong but undervalued neighborhoods, increase home values, market their communities, create high standards for property improvement and forge strong connections among neighbors
