“For decades, we have seen an increase across America in social isolation and loneliness, and a decline in people’s participation in civic life. Yet in these cities, people are connecting across differences of income and race, engaging in local community life and becoming more hopeful about the future." Since 2016, Reimagining the Civic Commons has emphasized investments that counter harmful trends like loneliness and economic segregation while delivering critical social, economic and environmental benefits for communities. And it’s working. We’re excited to share that national funders are doubling down on their support for local leaders implementing our innovative model with nearly $10 million in new investments across the country. https://lnkd.in/e_fSXqjK THE JPB FOUNDATION Knight Foundation The Kresge Foundation Ohio & Erie Canalway Coalition City of Akron, Ohio Live6 Alliance - Detroit City of Detroit Invest Detroit Memphis River Parks Partnership Innovate Memphis Overton Park Conservancy Heights CDC City of Memphis Downtown Memphis Commission Memphis Public Library Memphis Library Foundation Fairmount Park Conservancy Philadelphia Parks & Recreation Bartram's Garden CENTENNIAL PARKSIDE CDC STRAWBERRY MANSION COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION INC Environmental Initiative Macon-Bibb County Consolidated Government Blue Grass Community Foundation CivicLex Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government (LFUCG) Tri-State Trails Downtown Camden NJ Guadalupe River Park Conservancy #connection #civiclife #hope
