On March 26, 2022, Monroe County Executive Adam Bello and Rochester Mayor Malik Evans appointed Dr. Seanelle Hawkins, CEO of the Urban League of Greater Rochester, to lead community-wide implementation of RASE recommendations, as well as guide the efforts of Cedar Grove Institute for Sustainable Communities, a nationally recognized social science firm that provides guidance in the growth of diverse, prosperous and self-reliant communities.
This Spring, those groups will formalize an Implementation Council and will welcome those who have signed up to be a part of Rochester’s solution.
