Master of Arts in Community Development and Planning (12 - Unit Research Track)

Clark University

Community development isn’t a one-size fits all endeavor. At Clark, you will learn about the power structures that shape community spaces, and how to create processes in which community members have a say in those power structures. Community development is so much more than blueprints and zoning. It’s about cultivating spaces where people can flourish. Spaces with enough green space to play and relax. Spaces that offer economic opportunities that allow people to realize their dreams and aspirations. Places where people have access to quality, culturally responsive food, education, healthcare, and housing.
