Restoring Community

Resumen del informe: Beginning in August 2021, member-led task forces organized by ULI district councils in British Columbia, Houston, Northwest, St. Louis, and Toronto worked to understand historical inequities and racial discrimination in land use. Working independently and collectively, the teams crafted creative strategies to address the ongoing impacts of these inequalities on community health and wealth disparities. Local efforts were part of ULI’s District Council Partnerships for Health and Racial Equity Project, led by ULI’s Building Healthy Places Initiative with support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. In addition to identifying a local challenge and executing an 18-month scope of work, each team was encouraged to document its project, outcomes, and recommendations, producing a report that would meet the local need. The result is a library of five distinctive reports reflecting the work done in each community.
