Overview of Partners for First 18 Months
The CommUNITY 2000 local partners were chosen because they represented different geographic regions and, with the exception of the Greater Boston organization, had well-established fair housing centers. Each of the partners involved in Phase I, both national and local, faced their own unique challenges. Each partner received a different level of funding. Yet regardless of monies received, the partners met their challenges and developed solutions.
Each partner fulfilled the objectives that the architects of CommUNITY 2000 initially set forth. Each developed innovative approaches to help foster positive change in the civil rights and fair housing environments of their communities. Each was able to make a contribution to the Menu of Strategies.
