City Center Milwaukee - Mary Glass, Chair/CEO, Milwaukee Professionals Association LLC has begun Straight-Shooter Content Development Coffee Swatch for Infrastructure Innovation at the census tract and neighborhood level. It is her hands-on, face-to-face talk over coffee-tea-smoothie with individuals that can help stimulate Milwaukee's economy with hidden talent and vetted businesses that automatically will grow its economic climate because of it inherent vantage point.
Glass has mounted a 10-year Smart Growth Initiative (2010-2020) to Re-define, Re-brand and Un-trap Hidden talent and Vetted businesses in the city of Milwaukee, with a special focus on African American, other People of Color and Work Challenged individuals being at the center of its birth.
According to Glass, "African American, other People of Color and the Work Challenged* Milwaukeeans are by-design left out of the blueprinting - strategic planning discussion for Upscalability and Grandiosity in quality of life and economic development for the city of Milwaukee except when it comes to pooling their mega federal funding resources that they bring to the table - but they are not there. This is seen now in the quest for the NEW stadium, streetcar and EB-5 projects. NOW IS THE TIME and MPA LLC is about the business of making it happen with LIKE-MINDS. My office rejects any project that fails to recognize and respect the People from City-Center Milwaukee. For they are the core-citizenry-stakeholders and voters that are first and foremost entitled to have thumb- and blueprint in the development of their Infrastructure and its sustainability".
* Work Challenged:
Work Challenged represents un-, under-skilled; un-, under-employed; un-, under-financed neighborhood-level businesses; disabled; and re-entry.
Re-entry represents those returning from WAR, INCARCERATION, boomerang employment, boomerang retirement and college-certificated graduates unemployed.
