Promoting Regional Equity: A national summit on equitable development, 
social justice and smart growth

Please join PolicyLink and the Funders' Network for Smart Growth and 
Livable Communities for Promoting Regional Equity: A National Summit on 
Equitable Development, Social Justice, and Smart Growth, on November 
17-19, 2002 at the Biltmore Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. This 
conference will explore diverse initiatives, strategies, and policies 
that build livable communities and connect low-income/low-wealth 
individuals and communities--particularly those of color--to resources 
and opportunities throughout regions. Effective regional equity efforts 
confront the question "who benefits?" from local and regional 
development and pursue approaches in which the answer is all residents 
of metropolitan areas.
At the summit we will:
	*	Sharpen the concept, framework, and practice of regional
equity 
	*	Learn about innovative strategies that are being advanced in
local 
communities
	*	Engage in collective problem solving on key challenges
	*	Build new relationships and strategic alliances
	*	Analyze national, state, and local policy levers and policy
wins
	*	Identify strategic actions to advance regional equity and
smart 
growth 
The summit will feature practitioners and national experts who are 
building more equitable and inclusive neighborhoods and regions.
A preliminary agenda and registration information are available at:
