DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Housing Choice and Community Investment Act of 1994: Joint Hearings Before the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, United States Senate, and the Subcommittee on Housing and Urban Affairs, One Hundred Third Congress I want to acknowledge the presence of a number of daughters who are here today with their parents, starting with my own daughter, Ashley, and Sara Murray, who is here with Senator Mur ray, and I see some other young women who are here with either their moms or dads, and we're just delighted that all of you are here with us today. What we' re going to be talking about today 15 the whole question of housing policy and housing opportunities in America because we all know how important it is to have a nice home to live in and hopefully to own your own home. Many people aren't able to do that. They don't have the money or life has worked in such a way that they haven't had the kind of opportunity that maybe the rest of us have had. We spend a lot of time in the Government trying to figure out how we can make it more possible for more people to be able to have the chance to buy and own a home of their own, and to have all of the pleasant things that can come from that in terms of just allowing the kind of family life that isn't quite as possible in other ways if one doesn't have the chance to own a home.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn recent years, concerned governments, businesses, and civic groups have launched ambitious programs of community development designed to halt, and even reverse, decades of urban decline. But while massive amounts of effort and money are being dedicated to improving the inner-cities, two important questions have gone unanswered: Can community development actually help solve long-standing urban problems? And, based on social science analyses, what kinds of initiatives can make a difference? This book surveys what we currently know and what we need to know about community development's past, current, and potential contributions. The authors--economists, sociologists, political scientists, and a historian--define community development broadly to include all capacity building (including social, intellectual, physical, financial, and political assets) aimed at improving the quality of life in low- to moderate-income neighborhoods. The book addresses the history of urban development strategies, the politics of resource allocation, business and workforce development, housing, community development corporations, informal social organizations, schooling, and public security.
