06.13.08 June 9, 2008 "Home Rehab Drive Could Be Model" Crain's Cleveland Business - Neighborhood Progress and key partners are creating a pilot project to address the foreclosure crisis

To restore and maintain the health and vitality of Cleveland’s neighborhoods through private investment and support for community initiatives. Our goal is to be a catalyst for change. To this end, we strategically invest in community development organizations, their projects and their vision for the future.

“Reinvigorating the Urban Marketplace: Cleveland’s Strategic Investment Initiative”  

In the face of a transitioning economy, Cleveland’s neighborhoods need to compete for residents, business and investment.  Neighborhood Progress, along with its community partners, is in the forefront of efforts to respond to this challenge.  We have embarked on a unique effort that builds upon our nationally recognized work in rebuilding Cleveland’s neighborhoods.  Our Strategic Investment Initiative focuses initially on six neighborhoods that have developed plans for stimulating market recovery and improving the quality of life to create neighborhoods of choice.

The brochure below describes the approach we are using to bring together community stakeholders around a comprehensive rebuilding agenda – resident engagement, new and renovated housing, improved services, parks and green space, small business development and safety.  Our work builds on neighborhood assets and connects communities to areas of strength like Greater University Circle and the Lakefront.

The public-private partnership that led to the formation of Neighborhood Progress in 1989 is more important than ever as Cleveland works to redefine itself in this new global economy while ensuring greater opportunity for all of its citizens.  The approach described here shows the power of partnership and demonstrates the vital role that Cleveland’s neighborhoods can play in the long-term health and vitality of the region.  We invite you to join us in this important work.
