Description
Since 1970, BPI has represented public housing residents in the seminal public housing desegregation lawsuit, Gautreaux v. Chicago Housing Authority. As Gautreaux lawyers, we have worked for over 40 years to break down the racial segregation and economic isolation that produced what may once have been the worst public housing system in the nation. Today, BPI promotes both housing mobility and the revitalization of public housing communities. Learn more about our public housing work .
Join BPI in welcoming our newest Director! Joel Bookman is the President and CEO of Bookman Associates, Inc., providing consulting services in economic development, comprehensive community development, commercial corridor development, and strategic planning. Previously, Joel served as Director of Programs for the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) in Chicago, guiding the work of its New Communities Program, Elev8 Education Initiative, and the Center for Working Families.
Two years ago BPI’s public housing and public education teams joined forces in a determined effort to strengthen the Altgeld-Riverdale community and improve the lives of its 1,200 children under the age of eight and their families.
