Director of the White House Domestic Policy Council Cecilia Muñoz (AB '84) returns to the University of Michigan to chair a panel of public servants from rebounding Midwestern cities: Detroit, Michigan; Gary, Indiana; and Youngstown, Ohio. Each provides an example of the Obama Administration's "place-based" approach in action. The panel will feature communities embracing a collaborative eco-system, relying on partners across local, state and federal government, and other institutions to make progress on long-standing issues such as pervasive blight, crime, poor community trust in law enforcement, chronic homelessness and more. Muñoz taught at the Ford School in 2007 as the Towsley Foundation Policymaker in Residence. Panelists: Mayor Freeman-Wilson, Gary, Indiana Col. Kevin Riley, Commander of the 910th Airlift Wing’s 910th Mission Support Group Abby Beniston, City of Youngstown Arthur Jemison, Director of Housing and Revitalization, City of Detroit Sent from my iPad
