      Worked primarily in one of the three major program areas, Vacant to Vibrant: The Vacant Properties Collective Impact Initiative (V2V). Putting efforts into "demonstration blocks" designated by their neighborhood associations, UNI chose three such blocks in the urban core. We were able to engage residents and community leaders to focus efforts on vacant and owner occupied properties to combat the negative community impacts that are linked to blighted properties and lots.
