Neighborhood associations are working at the grassroots level to help close this gap for their residents. Hear from leaders of three of these communities 

Panelists include:

  • Kathy Persley, Heart of the City Neighborhood Association
  • Ike Graham, Vineyard Neighborhood Association
  • Langston Jones, Blue Hills Neighborhood Association
  • Edward Bell II, Blue Hills Neighborhood Association

The next KCCDI meeting will be held virtually on Friday, September 4th, 2026.
