Join the Urban Institute, Memphis Mayor Paul Young, and former US Congressman Dan Kildee for a series of conversations on what should come next for the future of federal place‑based policy. 

Federal place-based programs shape what gets built, who secures financing, and where investment flows. Yet many urban and rural places face challenges that current federal tools do not address. How should federal place‑based policy change to help more of America’s communities achieve broadly shared growth?

Speakers

• Dan Kildee, President and CEO, Community Foundation of Greater Flint; Former Member, US House of Representatives
• Paul Young, Mayor, City of Memphis
• Brett Theodos, Director, Center for Local Finance and Growth, Urban Institute (moderator)
