Introduction

You have been selected to propose improvements in the rehabilitations of the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA). You and your classmates will present your findings in front of a group of dignitaries and concerned citizens. You will be using the Internet and other sources of information to broaden your understanding of the issues and concerns facing city leaders and citizens of Chicago. You will work in a team to learn about the history of the CHA, the struggles it has faced, and the plans to transform it.

The wonderful World Wide Web welcomes you to weigh in, wade through the information, and whip the CHA into shape.
