"Blueprint" changing the Katrina debate

By Chris Kromm / August 30, 2007

The Institute's new report on the Katrina two-year anniversary -- Blueprint for Gulf Renewal: The Katrina Crisis and a Community Agenda for Action (pdf) -- is making a big media splash and helping change the debate about the Gulf Coast recovery.

So far the report has been covered nationally by the Associated Press, Bloomberg News, Gannet, The Los Angeles Times and McClatchy News.

Blueprint has also been featured on over 50 TV and radio broadcasts nation-wide, including MSNBC, National Public Radio, PBS "NewsHour" and XM satellite radio. We've been covered by city TV and radio in 16 states.

Let's keep making sure the important issues about the failed recovery -- including "Where did the Katrina money go?" -- keep getting asked, this week and beyond.
