Leadership Development in Focus

The Bridge Street Development Corporation and Project for Public Spaces have partnered with MAARUF in a new project, planning a new Malcolm X - Fulton Street plaza. The first phase will consist of survey taking. In the photo above, (left to right) Jamera Mcneil, Dante Davis, Aurash Khawarzad and Karen Levy are doing pedestrian surveys aimed at getting community opinion on what it would like to see in a newly designed space. For MAARUF, this is our way of getting our young people involved in meaningful neighborhood change - being in on the decisions that will impact how we all live and share space.
