Established by Jericho Road Housing Initiative, Central Circle is a community of collaborative groups that serve as a platform to address issues affecting Central City. This includes stakeholders such as residents of Central City, developers, city government, nonprofit organizations, and neighborhood groups, schools, churches and businesses. The goal is to fill the deficit in the dialog between stakeholders and encourage action at a grassroots level.
