Washington Park Partners
Washington Park Partners (WPP) is a comprehensive planning process that LISC is spearheading in the Washington Park neighborhood along with the Annie E. Casey Foundation (Making Connections Initiative) and numerous other community partners.
WPP relies heavily on a strategy pioneered by the Comprehensive Community Revitalization Program (CCRP) in the South Bronx and adopted by NCI (New Communities Initiative) in Chicago that calls for “bottom-up” resident-led planning and leadership development.
