Place-Based Strategies: Strengthening Local economies in Low-Income Communities
April 2 @ 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm EDT
Where an individual lives can play a role in shaping their employment opportunities and interactions. While issues related to where a person is located have been overshadowed by issues related to an individual’s personal circumstances, this is starting to shift. In this seminar, we’ll bring together experts from research and policy to discuss how location affects job markets and can contribute to income inequality.
