Pratt Center is the only university-based community development organization that operates at both the ground and policy levels, across New York's 5 boroughs, to help create more equitable and sustainable communities in an era of accelerating economic and environmental inequality.We believe that effective urban planning is a bottom-up process that can best be achieved by first working to understand community dynamics and the real impact of choices, and then translating this understanding into public policy that effectively meets the needs of residents and businesses.Pratt Center works with and on behalf of community-based organizations and small businesses to create a diverse economy that delivers access to good jobs and economic opportunities for residents, as well as sustainable neighborhoods, where housing, transportation and other resources are accessible, green, and flourish to generate a high quality of life. Through on-the-ground efforts, policy design and advocacy we are committed to building an environmentally sustainable city for current and future generations of City residents.
