Central Texas Opportunity Mapping Initiative

Kirwan researchers, working in collaboration with the Central Texas Op¬portunity Initiative, utilized the Communities of Opportunity model to analyze the distribution of opportunity in the Austin region. The Central Texas Opportunity initiative was initiated by the Community Partnership for the Homeless in order to provide a data resource for policy makers, community development practitioners, social service providers, and the public to remedy socioeconomic inequity issues. This initiative culmi¬nated in a series of public engagements with leaders in the Austin region in the spring of 2007.
