NEW YORK, NEW YORK — The Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) is the nation's largest and most influential community development intermediary; it has invested some $11 billion in grants, loans, and equity in over 30 cities and rural regions and leveraged over $34 billion for affordable housing, retail development, community facilities, and neighborhood improvement programs. LISC will use this grant to develop more sophisticated tools, processes, and systems for data analysis and performance management in LISC's Building Sustainable Communities Program and LISC/Chicago's New Communities Program.
The MacArthur Foundation awarded Local Initiatives Support Corporation $600,000 between 2009 and 2012.
