Description of Streets of Hope.

“Using the Dudley Street Neighborhood Initiative in Boston’s most impoverished neighborhood as a case study, the authors show how effective organizing reinforces neighborhood leadership, encourages grassroots power and leads to successful public-private partnerships and comprehensive community development.”—Norman Krumholz 

“At a time when others are writing off our inner cities and writing off inner city youth, Streets of Hope challenges and inspires us with the brilliance of the Dudley Street neighborhood example.”—Frieda Garcia, chair, The Boston Foundation
