OLLU President Abel Chávez and a delegation of West Side leaders, which included former mayor Henry Cisneros, visited the National Center for Civil and Human Rights in Atlanta on Jan. 15, Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
The trip was organized by ESTAR West — Entrepreneurs and Small Businesses Thriving Alongside Residents on the West Side. This coalition of leaders met with neighborhood advocates, private investors, housing developers and city leaders who are shaping Atlanta’s West Side community development and revitalization.
ESTAR West is an initiative that emerged from the Aspen Institute Latinos and Society program’s inaugural City Learning and Action Lab.
