With Highland Park having one of the highest foreclosure rates last year in the Richmond metro area, our friends at U of R thought this may be of interest. It’s main purpose is to engage students, however all members of the community are welcome to attend.
The Bonner Center for Civic Engagement (CCE) invites you to join us for a Brown Bag discussion on Friday, February 19th, “The Mortgage Crisis, Communities of Color, and the Ways Forward.” Sonya Ravindranath Waddell, associate regional economist for the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond; Charlene Crowell, communications manager for the Center for Responsible Lending in Raleigh, North Carolina; and Connie Chamberlin, president and CEO of Housing Opportunities Made Equal of Virginia (HOME) in Richmond, will discuss the current foreclosure crisis, nationally and regionally. Topics will include the disproportionate impact of the crisis on African-American communities and current regional trends and responses. This week’s Brown Bag is part of the Black History Month Celebration and is co-sponsored by the Black History Month Committee. . .
CCE Brown Bags are held on Fridays from 12:30-1:25 p.m. You will find directions to campus at http://www.richmond.edu/visit/directions.html and a parking map at http://www.richmond.edu/visit/maps/index.html. Weinstein Hall where the event will be held is building 8 on the map. You can obtain a parking pass at http://witness.richmond.edu/parking/visitorvehreg.htm.
