Pittsburgh's Plan to Promote Diversity and In-Migration
Seemingly on the rebound after a 55-year decline in population, Pittsburgh is ready to move into a new era as an attractive destination for immigrants and a diverse population of residents.
Luke Nozicka reports on a plan released by the administration of Mayor Bill Peduto to increase the diversity and immigrant population of the city of Pittsburgh.
"The plan, released Monday, consists of three parts: Welcome, Neighbor!, which focuses on citizenship, learning and teaching about diverse communities; Bridge to the City, which is to help with policy and services; and Prospering Together, which aims to create more jobs for immigrants," explains Luke Nozicka.
The article includes an embedded version of the entire plan, which comprises 37 strategies to be implemented on a five-year timeline.
