Join FOCUS St. Louis for a conversation about neighborhoods in transition.

Neighborhoods form the unique tapestry of our St. Louis region. Many of these neighborhoods are in transition, whether they are dealing with population loss or gain, rapid gentrification or vacancy and dereliction, large-scale development or simply seeking to build community alignment.

But who is making the decisions about the future of these communities? There are a variety of ways in which a neighborhood can organize to influence the shape of their own community, including neighborhood associations, community development corporations, and creating strategic development plans built on neighborhood needs.

This discussion forum will bring together active residents, organizers and development professionals to explore how our region is being shaped by neighborhoods taking power over their own future and the challenges and opportunities they face.
