Program
Cleveland has always been known as a city of neighborhoods and our neighborhood-based community development corporations are nationally recognized as being at the forefront of urban redevelopment. This forum will celebrate the accomplishments of Cleveland’s neighborhood organizations, past, present and future. Norman Krumholz, professor of urban planning at the Levin College will provide a thought provoking retrospective of how the Cleveland Housing Network evolved from a small, housing organization to become one of the largest, most respected nonprofit developers of affordable housing in the country. In addition, the forum will highlight present approaches to neighborhood development and the innovative projects of two community development corporations.
Throughout the next year, the Levin College Forum is hosting a series of community dialogues called “Celebrate Cleveland.” These forums will focus on the success stories taking place in Greater Cleveland and the region. We will hear how optimism combined with substantial investment by our leading citizens and institutions is making a difference. We invite you to join us to celebrate what is taking place and think together about how to get the message of success, investment, and commitment to everyone who lives in our region and beyond.
