Knowledge is the most democratic source of power.
The Center for Community Planning & Development (CCPD) promotes knowledge, applied research, and innovative practice in community planning and development throughout the New York metropolitan region. It provides technical assistance and training through partnerships with community-based organizations, non-profit corporations, and local agencies. The CCPD is committed to democratic, inclusive, and participatory approaches to planning and development that foster sustainability and economic and social justice.
CCPD is affiliated with the Hunter College Department of Urban Affairs & Planning. It is
a venue for community/university partnerships where community members, students, and
academics learn and benefit from each other. Center projects have addressed affordable
housing, community economic development, healthy communities, workforce development, immigration and multiethnicity, environmental justice, and other issues of concern to New York communities.
