It's Not Just Black and White

In 2005–2006 the Northeast Florida Center for Community Initiatives carried out a series of research efforts with the Jacksonville Human Rights Commission (JHRC) to 1) understand how dramatic demographic changes will affect the local community in the future, 2) identify creative ways that the city could prepare for this opportunity, and 3) plan how to limit potential problems that other communities have experienced from demographic shifts. In this paper, we present a condensed version of our report to the JHRC.
