Professors of Regional & City Planning C. Aujean Lee and John Harris were awarded an OU Faculty Investment Program grant entitled, “Outsourcing Community Development and Advocacy?: A Case Study of Neighborhood Alliance of Central Oklahoma.”

The study will contribute new knowledge to about how neighborhood planning in the public or nonprofit sector may lead to different outcomes for resident empowerment.
