Organization Information

Mission Statement

"Great Places" is designed to make good places great by bringing together the resources of state government to build capacity in communities, regions, neighborhoods or districts that cultivate the unique and authentic qualities that make places special: engaging experiences; rich, diverse populations & cultures; a vital, creative economy; clean and accessible natural and built environments; well-designed infrastructure; and a shared attitude of optimism that welcomes new ideas, based on a diverse and inclusive cultural mosaic.

Description

We are a small organization under the Department of Cultural Affairs. We are involved with community development and poverty initiatives. Currently we assist communities leverage state resources, but we are also involved in a number of independent poverty initiatives such as a statewide poverty symposium series, statewide transportation, and outreach to communities about our program.
