National Intermediaries and Local Community Development Corporation Networks: A View from Cleveland

To begin, community development is place based–it only happens in a local physical, geographic environment. So, why have national intermediaries at all? What are they and how do they work? What value do they bring to local community development efforts? Finally, how are national intermediaries responding to the need for growth in the community development agenda and supporting new and emerging efforts? This is not an in-depth analysis of the work of national intermediaries. For that there are a number of excellent articles and publications that I highly recommend (Walker, 2002; Walker, Gustafson, & Snow, 2002).
