Supporting Neighborhood Transformation
Our new video tells the story of legal aid and Cleveland Owns, an incubator for collective ownership working in the Hough and Detroit Shoreway neighborhoods. Members of the Hough Block Club (the “BC”) rely on legal aid’s counsel and representation to develop a local solar energy project, which will generate clean energy and wealth for residents.
