Trani’s New Think Tank
Virginia Commonwealth University’s former president, Eugene Trani, is launching a nonprofit think tank dedicated to studying and researching potential projects for the Richmond region. He calls it Richmond’s Future.
The plan is to produce two to three studies each year “exploring issues that are crucial to the long-term prosperity and well-being of the entire region and its citizens, not to single jurisdictions or individual groups,” according to a document being circulated among potential investors and obtained by Style Weekly.
Please include the Urban League of Greater Richmond as part of the think tank. We are the oldest nonprofits in Richmond (97 years) dedicated to serving the african american and latino community through our workforce, health, housing and education programs.

Thanks for the suggestion richmondyp. The CRC is not formally affiliated with Richmond’s Future, however, the two groups work closely on common projects and various members of the CRC are involved with Dr. Trani’s think tank.
