  • A Closer Look at Neighborhood-Based Economic
    A Closer Look at Neighborhood-Based Economic Development in Los Angeles This report was produced by Public Counsel and several neighborhood-based nonprofit organizations in Los Angeles with two goals in mind: (1) to reflect on what redevelopment investments have meant for selected neighborhoods in Los Angeles; and (2) to inform the creation of new economic development vehicles in Los Angeles. We do not attempt to describe every aspect of redevelopment in Los Angeles, but instead focus on the agency’s successes in fostering economic growth in specific neighborhoods. This report would not have been possible without the support and guidance of Ruth Teague. Even while valiantly fighting cancer, Ruth inspired all of us to come together and draft a collective story about the impact of neighborhood development on people and communities most in need. She was a tireless champion for community development, friend, mentor, and inspiration to many.
