This $425,726 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a study to examine the impact of gentrification on the displacement of local community organizations in the United States. The primary awardee, the University of Illinois, will digitize and geocode historical data on the locations and types of thousands of local community organizations to analyze how neighborhood change affects the viability of these critical civic institutions. The research will leverage geographic information systems and statistical analysis, with a planned sub-award to Emory University to assist with data processing and analysis. The project aims to produce an interactive website to visualize trends in organizational displacement and inform understanding of the community-level impacts of gentrification. The award period runs from August 2024 to July 2027.
