Current CCR Projects--Making a Difference

In addition to teaching classes, hosting member meetings and leading hot-issue deliberation, CCR tackles issues that need citizen involvement to succeed.  Right now we are working on the following projects:

• Advising new Cincinnati Police Chief James Craig on building a citizens advisory board to guide city-wide police policy;
• Connecting grass-roots community networks in Cincinnati Police in District 1 to co-create public safety;
• Facilitating the development of a parenting collaborative among  Price Hill  social service agencies that seeks to engage parents in addressing the community's parenting needs;
• Teaching UC community design students the basics of citizen activism and community organizing;
• Working with the Cincinnatus Association to help the City of Cincinnati design a comprehensive citizen engagement strategy;
• Discussing with Agenda 360 how citizen engagement can move forward its regional initiatives;
• Steering committee member of the following community efforts:  Plan Cincinnati, Neighborhood Summit, Core Change.
