About Managing Neighborhood Change



Managing Neighborhood Change (MNC) is a framework for CDCs, designed by Brooking's Fellow and housing expert Alan Mallach, that seeks to bring new tools to neighborhoods to help stakeholders analyze the local market and determine appropriate strategies to affect needed changes. In 2008, NACEDA partnered with consultants Root Change to operationalize the MNC framework.
