Key Achievements
The East Baltimore redevelopment project will create 8,000 jobs and result in 2,200 new and rehabilitated homes for renters and buyers of various income levels.
This issue of Casey Connects focuses on responsible redevelopment opportunities in East Baltimore, Atlanta, Denver and San Diego. It tells how the Annie E. Casey Foundation is investing in better buildings and, more importantly, broader opportunities and benefits for residents in distressed neighborhoods. Smaller stories introduce Casey’s online juvenile justice reform helpline plus 7 movers and shakers who are advancing the Foundation’s work.
Why is a foundation devoted to disadvantaged children supporting major redevelopment projects in Baltimore and beyond? Look no further than Casey’s guiding principle: Children do well when their families do well, and families do better when they live in supportive communities.
