Human and community development in GO TO 2040
With the support of The Chicago Community Trust, a number of reports on human and community development topics are being prepared to support GO TO 2040. These reports provide an examination of existing conditions in each topic area and will serve as the basis for recommendations that GO TO 2040 might make on these topics.
Below are a list of topics, the lead agency responsible for researching each one, and links to work products. For each topic, there will be an executive summary, a full report, and an examination of how physical planning decisions affect this topic. If a link is not active, that means that the work product is not yet complete. All work products are expected to be posted by the end of summer 2009.
