Community First Development Coalition: FCR

Mission Statement

We strive to provide accurate & timely information about development proposals and notification of opportunities for community participation in the development process. Our goal is to educate community members about our rightful role in economic redevelopment and to empower ourselves with the tools and resources we need to ensure that our voices are heard. We therefore advocate for greater public access to the public information necessary for citizens to make informed decisions about development, and monitor compliance with open government laws. In addition, we encourage community organization and mobilization efforts as well as community driven and designed development initiatives." Deirdre Hoare and Martin McGloin, Co-founders, Community First! Development Coalition If you or your community have a perspective on a development and would like to share with the community at large send it to us at communityfirst@verizon.net
