Jill was an intern working in a community development agency
located in an urban downtown area that was seeing considerable
change. Several developers were buying real estate in the region
with hopes of attracting young professionals who wanted to be close
to the shore and NYC. Jill's supervisor was new and had strong ties
to a new and upcoming gentrification movement.
At the same time, on the west side of the city there was a rapid
influx of Central American immigrants. Tensions were growing among
the various stakeholders and Jill's supervisor asked her to network
within the Latino community to find key leaders who might work on
an advisory board to help improve relationships and cooperation.
Jill worked in the Latino community in a high school tutoring
program, but as a new intern, she didn't have any real connections
in the Latino or blue collar communities there.
Jill was very interested in expanding her professional network so
this could help her with future jobs in community development.
