Strengthening Neighborhoods from the Inside

Center for Transforming Communities’ vision is that every Memphis neighborhood becomes a place anyone would gladly call home. Center for Transforming Communities (CTC) believes that the strengthening of neighborhoods is a core component in Memphis’ advancement to becoming a 21st century city. And, CTC believes that a missing ingredient among the efforts to revitalize and strengthen distressed neighborhoods is a complementary, mutually reinforcing relationship between institutions impacting neighborhoods and the citizens within those neighborhoods. To that end, the impact that CTC seeks to have is an increase in neighborhood voice, power and inclusion in decision-making at all levels.

Since 2010, CTC has been building expertise in place-based relational organizing that prepares the community to have a voice in decisions that impact their neighborhood. We have also gained experience and expertise assisting institutions to include that resident voice. We are eager to build upon this expertise and assist Memphis in building its capacity and infrastructure for incorporating and valuing community voices and participation in decision-making. We believe it is a vital, yet often overlooked ingredient, for an effective community development eco-system in Memphis. CTC is eager to change this!
