Persistent racial inequality and poverty are especially evident in America’s cities. This speech focuses on effective leadership considerations to sustain a commitment to equality, inclusiveness, and recognition that fighting poverty involves bringing the entire community together in the heart of the city. 2017 Purpose Built Conference in Omaha, Nebraska.
We are excited to reveal our new brand identity! Our new brand is the next chapter in a story about increasing economic mobility, better health outcomes, and racial equity by harnessing neighborhoods as powerful engines of change.
In our new logo, you see the blocks of a city grid or an interwoven tapestry of bold and vivid colors. It symbolizes both where we work and how we work. Purpose Built supports over 70 neighborhoods—including more than 25 Network Members—creating an interconnected collective of leaders strengthening neighborhoods so everyone can thrive.
This new brand identity is more than a logo. It is a framework for telling the Purpose Built Communities story and an invitation to join our mission of creating pathways to prosperity for residents in the places they call home.
