Community engagement is critical in building strong, thriving, and equitable communities. We value the diversity of our region and are working together to create strategic partnerships with community leaders, businesses, and nonprofit organizations focused on meeting the current and future needs of our residents. Together we can deliver meaningful investment and a shared vision for economic growth and stability.
AREAS OF FOCUS
Convene: Bring together the voices and perspectives of those closest to the problems we are working to address. The goal is to listen and support engagement across diverse communities that provide insight into developments and initiatives impacting our region.
Inform: Promote growth and economic development within the region – specifically Southern Dallas County – and highlight the business community and the DRC’s work in Diversity Equity & Inclusion.
Collaborate: Align with businesses, community stakeholders, and government to partner on projects that respond to community-driven issues and improve the quality of life for all.
