How We Change the Black East Side: A Symposium

A coalition of community groups and activists is coming together with UB planners and researchers to radically transform one Black East Side neighborhood — and to do it sooner, rather than later.

Driven by strong collaborations between community organizations, including the Buffalo Center for Health Equity, the UB Community Health Equity Research Institute, the School of Architecture and Planning, and the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at UB, the effort is aimed at tackling the root causes of the social determinants of health in order to improve the health of people who live on Buffalo’s East Side.
