Community Action Partnership of North Alabama
In 2014, NeighborWorks America launched its Catalytic Grant Program to demonstrate that measurable results at the community level could be exponentially increased with comprehensive, cross-sector, resident-driven approaches to revitalizing places. Grants of $125,000-$500,000 each were awarded to 14 organizations across the country, and the funds were supplemented with technical assistance and peer networking. Eighteen months later the results were in: success.
