The Center's Story is Published
The story of heirs' property in the Lowcountry and the creation of the Heirs' Property Preservation Project (the Project), the Center's predecessor, are captured in the book Breakthrough Communities: Sustainability and Justice in the Next American Metropolis. As a grantee of the Sustainable Metropolitan Communities portfolio of former Ford Foundation program officer Carl Anthony, Faith Rivers (now a professor at Elon Law School) and Jennie Stephens, former senior program director at Coastal Community Foundation, were asked to write about heirs' property and the Project.
The Center's story is one of 33 stories included in Breakthrough Communities, which focuses on regional equity issues, issues of race, and connection to place and offers models for organizing and action.
