STL Community LAB: Learn. Act. Build.
After discussions with our very own Shirronda Almeida, the University of Missouri has recently launched the STL Community LAB as a community development training collaborative platform.
“I am very heartened by the relationships that get fostered by the Mel King Institute. I do think there is a special something about it that is unique to people in the community development field and people who want to become really good community development practitioners, so it’s special to be a part of that. I don’t take it for granted. "
The Urban Institute’s Housing Finance Policy Center has been conducting in-depth research pieces on these persistent issues, and convened a planning roundtable in 2018 to collect stakeholder feedback and experiences from a national and local perspective.
This toolkit focuses on the broader goal of identifying universal themes and values that tie together a range of issues.
