Promise Neighborhood aims to lift Kenilworth Parkside
In Washington DCs Kenilworth Parkside, decades of poverty and violence meet new hope as the DC Promise Neighborhood Initiative uses a 28 million Education Department grant and partners like Cesar Chavez Public Charter School and Americas Promise Alliance to fund after school programs, computer labs, and family support. The effort faces slow progress, stalled housing grants, and mixed resident confidence as it tracks data and builds community ties to improve schooling and reduce violence.
