chris coons, senator
Now more than ever, we need to show communities that have been impacted by a long legacy of racism and race-based inequality that we can do better.
One key to that is to increase collaboration.
In this bonus episode of This is Community Logan Herring, Sr., executive director of Purpose Built Communities Network Member REACH Riverside--an organization working to improve opportunities and outcomes for residents in the Riverside neighborhood of Wilmington Delaware, talks to Delaware Senator Chris Coons about working across those silos that exist in federal programs designed to address poverty.
This conversation took place at the first-ever virtual Purpose Built Communities Annual Conference in November of 2020.
