The Transformative Community Engagement summary report Community Science wrote for DRIVE. It will expand on what David was sharing on Tuesday.
It’s basically a community-wide strategy of how to create a culture of transformative community engagement/power building amongst CBOs, institutions, block groups, etc.
Elliott at the meeting mentioned some recent info to a study that links connecting individuals in different social-economic statuses can help with economic upward mobility.
I’ll get back to everyone with a “next step” from Tuesday’s conversation. Many of you have contacted me with a desire to see this continue. I just want it to be purposeful for us.

This conference will make the case that Light Touch Density and Walkable Oriented Development can help cities and counties increase their economic vitality and competitiveness, while simultaneously addressing housing supply needs, keeping housing price increases tamped down, adding new vigor to city commercial areas, and increasing tax revenues.

Homeownership is a critical wealth-building tool, but not everyone has an equitable opportunity to become a homeowner. Approximately one in five borrowers—about 36 million Americans—has used alternative financing instead of a traditional mortgage. These include land contracts, lease-purchase options, seller-financed mortgages, and personal property or chattel loans. Alternative financing arrangements typically cost more and carry fewer protections than mortgages, which are buoyed by tax incentives and strong public policy.

Parks California
Deadline: Aug 5, 2022
The Route to Parks grants program is focused on providing experiences in State Parks to underrepresented communities. Studies have shown that communities of color continuously have unequal transit access to large public green spaces (1). For example, in Los Angeles, 41% of lower-income households do not have immediate access to a park, and many large regional parks, including state parks, do not have direct transit line access (2). By supporting local organizations that are addressing the physical and mental barriers to access that park-poor communities face, we collectively support communities in their personal journey to connecting with the outdoors.

Homeownership is a critical wealth-building tool, but not everyone has an equitable opportunity to become a homeowner. Approximately one in five borrowers—about 36 million Americans—has used alternative financing instead of a traditional mortgage. These include land contracts, lease-purchase options, seller-financed mortgages, and personal property or chattel loans. Alternative financing arrangements typically cost more and carry fewer protections than mortgages, which are buoyed by tax incentives and strong public policy.

For example, in Los Angeles, 41% of lower-income households do not have immediate access to a park, and many large regional parks, including state parks, do not have direct transit line access (2). By supporting local organizations that are addressing the physical and mental barriers to access that park-poor communities face, we collectively support communities in their personal journey to connecting with the outdoors.

VISION FOR SOUTHWEST FRESNO
Everyone deserves access to healthy food. But in too many American cities, food deserts and systemic inequities limit this access. Fresno, California is an agriculturally rich region, but nutritious food is not accessible or affordable for all of its residents. To combat this, two nonprofits, Fresno Metro Ministry and St. Rest Baptist Church, partnered to create the St. Rest + Food to Share Hub – a robust, equitable and place-based investment in Southwest Fresno for food recovery, storage and distribution.

Metro/BBCDC has obtained a grant from Regenerate California Innovation (RCI) to help fund up to an approximate $8,000 MBA Study cost - with a matching contribution to cost by the CSUF Gazarian Real Estate Center as well - that can involve Fresno CEDP members in providing key inputs into and feedback about local aspiring developer program needs.
If you have interest - I will need any written suggestions you may have about draft scope of work attached and embedded below by Wednesday July 13th to vet with CSUF MBA Project Office before sending to prospective MBA Student participants. There are limitations as to how much MBA students can do with time allotted in one semester - but it would be great to hear early from you with any ideas/perspectives you may have so they are considered.
Any interested CEDP Housing Leaders will be invited to participate in check-in/progress meetings with MBA Students likely scheduled every two weeks throughout the semester to help keep project moving forward and toward achieving the project study scope with consistent local input.
Best Regards,
Keith Bergthold

FDIC- Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Webinar: August 4 from 10:00 AM - 11:30AM
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation is convening an "Expanding Access to Small Dollar Loans for Low- and Moderate-Income Consumers in the Central Valley" webinar on August 4, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. PT.
Many communities in the Central Valley lack access to responsible consumer credit due to cultural and geographic barriers, and instead rely upon high cost alternative lenders. This webinar will highlight effective strategies to increase consumer credit and financial capability through partnerships among financial institutions, Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs), and non-profits. Additionally, bankers will learn how to offer small dollar loans (SDLs) through core technology as several new small dollar loan products have emerged.
The target audience includes community stakeholders such as CDFIs, non-profit organizations, bankers (product managers, compliance officers, CRA Officers, community development managers/directors), and government agencies seeking alternative credit access options for underserved communities.

Metro/BBCDC has obtained a grant from Regenerate California Innovation (RCI) to help fund up to an approximate $8,000 MBA Study cost - with a matching contribution to cost by the CSUF Gazarian Real Estate Center as well - that can involve Fresno CEDP members in providing key inputs into and feedback about local aspiring developer program needs.
If you have interest - I will need any written suggestions you may have about draft scope of work attached and embedded below by Wednesday July 13th to vet with CSUF MBA Project Office before sending to prospective MBA Student participants. There are limitations as to how much MBA students can do with time allotted in one semester - but it would be great to hear early from you with any ideas/perspectives you may have so they are considered.
Any interested CEDP Housing Leaders will be invited to participate in check-in/progress meetings with MBA Students likely scheduled every two weeks throughout the semester to help keep project moving forward and toward achieving the project study scope with consistent local input.
Best Regards,
Keith Bergthold

Message from Artie:
The Transformative Community Engagement summary report Community Science wrote for DRIVE. It will expand on what David was sharing on Tuesday.
It’s basically a community-wide strategy of how to create a culture of transformative community engagement/power building amongst CBOs, institutions, block groups, etc.
Elliott at the meeting mentioned some recent info to a study that links connecting individuals in different social-economic statuses can help with economic upward mobility.
I’ll get back to everyone with a “next step” from Tuesday’s conversation. Many of you have contacted me with a desire to see this continue. I just want it to be purposeful for us.

In September, the American Enterprise Institute will host six conferences in California on Increasing Housing Supply with Senate Bill 9 and Senate Bill 10, including in Fresno on September 21st. We hope that you’ll join us as we gather together policymakers, academics, advocates, and developers to discuss solutions to California’s enduring housing supply crisis.
This conference will make the case that Light Touch Density and Walkable Oriented Development can help cities and counties increase their economic vitality and competitiveness, while simultaneously addressing housing supply needs, keeping housing price increases tamped down, adding new vigor to city commercial areas, and increasing tax revenues.

Homeownership is a critical wealth-building tool, but not everyone has an equitable opportunity to become a homeowner. Approximately one in five borrowers—about 36 million Americans—has used alternative financing instead of a traditional mortgage. These include land contracts, lease-purchase options, seller-financed mortgages, and personal property or chattel loans. Alternative financing arrangements typically cost more and carry fewer protections than mortgages, which are buoyed by tax incentives and strong public policy.

Parks California
Deadline: Aug 5, 2022
The Route to Parks grants program is focused on providing experiences in State Parks to underrepresented communities. Studies have shown that communities of color continuously have unequal transit access to large public green spaces (1). For example, in Los Angeles, 41% of lower-income households do not have immediate access to a park, and many large regional parks, including state parks, do not have direct transit line access (2). By supporting local organizations that are addressing the physical and mental barriers to access that park-poor communities face, we collectively support communities in their personal journey to connecting with the outdoors.

VISION FOR SOUTHWEST FRESNO
Everyone deserves access to healthy food. But in too many American cities, food deserts and systemic inequities limit this access. Fresno, California is an agriculturally rich region, but nutritious food is not accessible or affordable for all of its residents. To combat this, two nonprofits, Fresno Metro Ministry and St. Rest Baptist Church, partnered to create the St. Rest + Food to Share Hub – a robust, equitable and place-based investment in Southwest Fresno for food recovery, storage and distribution.

FDIC- Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Webinar: August 4 from 10:00 AM - 11:30AM
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation is convening an "Expanding Access to Small Dollar Loans for Low- and Moderate-Income Consumers in the Central Valley" webinar on August 4, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. PT.
Many communities in the Central Valley lack access to responsible consumer credit due to cultural and geographic barriers, and instead rely upon high cost alternative lenders. This webinar will highlight effective strategies to increase consumer credit and financial capability through partnerships among financial institutions, Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs), and non-profits. Additionally, bankers will learn how to offer small dollar loans (SDLs) through core technology as several new small dollar loan products have emerged.
The target audience includes community stakeholders such as CDFIs, non-profit organizations, bankers (product managers, compliance officers, CRA Officers, community development managers/directors), and government agencies seeking alternative credit access options for underserved communities.
