Project Profile:

With support from the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation, Mid South Delta LISC developed a service delivery model that promotes comprehensive community development within the Delta regions of Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi. LISC will study successful community development activities in other communities, apply knowledge of the Delta's culture, history, and challenges in considering those examples, and conduct a demonstration program in one Delta community. These activities are intended to result in the implementation of a five-year pilot initiative.
