ATLANTA'S NEIGHBORHOODS & ITS PEOPLE
The center’s mission is to support faculty and graduate student research to better understand the challenges and opportunities of Atlanta’s neighborhoods, communities and people. This includes studies that advance social justice initiatives and investigations of national and international urban processes that affect local populations.
The Center brings together more than 30 faculty members from ten academic disciplines.
Our Goals
Three goals guide the Center’s growth and development:
- Increase Atlanta and urban research and external grant support.
- Assist graduate students in their neighborhood and community research and scholarly pursuits.
- Foster partnerships and ties with community organizations and leaders in order to conduct applied research and community-initiated action programs.
