Community Renewal International (CRI)

Cri has actualized, scaled and replicated a model to address problems of societal decay by intentionally growing and nurturing a system of positve relationships. The methodology grows a communitywide caring network and environment of trust, which function as the relational foundation of the Community. Cri created, and continues to develop, an intervention methodology based on initiating, growing and nurturing mutually enhancing relationships delivered through activities in three strategic platform areas: 1) Renewal team aligns caring people communitywide, 2) haven house connects friendship one block at a time to place caring in the system, and 3) friendship house restores hope in neighborhoods of concentrated disadvantaged.
