VIDEO: On The Ground celebrates Burton Heights, South Division & Garfield Park

Meet the people who are living, working and organizing along the South Division corridor and in the Burton Heights and Garfield Park neighborhoods in our On The Ground video that celebrates the incredible work being done in this community.


For the last three months, Rapid Growth reporters have been listening, learning and sharing empowering narratives of those living, working and organizing along the South Division corridor and in the Burton Heights and Garfield Park neighborhoods as part of our On the Ground series.

Through the series, we have featured the voices of the residents, business owners, families, leaders, and educators in these communities. In this video, we wanted to give you a look inside this community filled with people doing incredible work.

Thank you for watching, and we hope you'll be inspired as we have been to have had the opportunity to hear about the community's work, hopes and dreams for their neighborhoods.
