Progress Institute 2021 will focus on the Cleveland Neighborhood Platform. Cleveland Community Development Corporations (CDCs) and Cleveland Neighborhood Progress developed the Neighborhood Platform to recommend specific policies for the next Mayor and City Council. The recommendations lay a foundation for transformative change in every Cleveland neighborhood.

The event will highlight the Neighborhood Platform with a plenary discussion and breakout sessions, and it will conclude with conversations with the mayoral candidates sharing their thoughts on the Neighborhood Platform and how it aligns with their vision for our city.
