<br />Community Development Monograph Series <br />'20 <br /> <br />The Center for Community Development and Design is a <br />partnership between the University of Colorado at Colorado <br />Springs, the city of Colorado Springs, and other Colorado <br />communities. The Center responds to requests for planning, <br />design, research, and community development coming from community <br />groups, government units, and non-profit organizations that <br />cannot afford or do not have the services ~he Center provides. <br />CCDD joins together the efforts of its own professional staff <br />with those of faculty, students and community representatives in <br />responding to requests for their services. Projects are approved <br />and administered by its Cooperative community Board. <br /> <br />CCDD's commitments include the building and strenghtening of <br />a community's ability to solve problems. While the Center is <br />striving to provide educationally oriented public service to <br />communities, it also affords students a chance to apply classroom <br />learning through professionally supervised field experiences. <br />Faculty working with the Center are provided with funding and <br />logistical support for numerous types of research opportunities. <br /> <br />The Center serves the entire state, with services to the <br />southern portion of the state administered through the UCCS <br />office. Center clients include any individual, group, or agency <br />with a specific need for which a match can be found within the <br />resources of the University system. <br /> <br />CCDD has gathered data for census surveys, business surveys, <br />and traffic studies. It has performed business feasibility, <br />environmental, and economic impact analysis. It has been <br />involved in urban planning; historic preservation, and <br />preliminary and redesign projects. And CCDD has worked with <br />numerous groups of businesses, citizens, and jurisdictions in <br />community developemnt functions. <br /> <br />Center for Community Development & Design <br />University of Colorado <br />Austin Bluffs Parkway <br />Colorado Springs, CO <br />80933-7150 <br />
