Key takeaways from On the Table MKE discussions

Neighborhood and Community Development

  • Treat residents as partners so neighborhood activities and community development are always done with residents, not for residents
  • Don’t underestimate the value that exists in communities, rather, invest in those underappreciated assets
  • Among nonprofit agencies, rethink how programs and outreach come together in a manner that is organic, resident-driven and resident-owned to thrive
