The National Science Foundation Division of Computing and Communication Foundations awarded Tulane University $449,868 on October 1, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to develop and evaluate community-centered civic AI systems that connect residents, community organizations, and local governments around public service information and civic data. The project will conduct participatory design activities with residents, civic organizations, people with disabilities, and municipal staff to identify requirements for civic AI tools that make civic information actionable. The team will develop AI systems that connect resident questions and complaints to relevant evidence, including prior service reports, public meeting records, policy discussions, community contributions, and opportunities for participation. The work addresses fragmented civic data—including 311 reports, open datasets, and public meeting records—that residents currently struggle to find, understand, and use effectively. The project aims to help communities better understand public problems, connect individual reports to broader patterns, and identify practical next steps while supporting more transparent, responsive, and accountable public services. The award supports student training and strengthens partnerships among universities, local governments, and community groups in New Orleans and Pittsburgh. Performance is scheduled from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2029, with place of performance in New Orleans, Louisiana.
