This paper uses a network analysis to study the emergence of a community-university
partnership in Chicago's Pilsen community. It tracks the creation of
Esperanza Familiar, a joint product of the Resurrection Project, a community
development corporation in Pilsen and the Jane Addams College of Social
Work, University of Illinois at Chicago. The partnership creates and
disseminates knowledge to such diverse beneficiaries as faculty, graduate
students, staff of the Resurrection Project and families in the neighborhood.
This learning is reminiscent of the education-based approaches to community
empowerment that were spawned by Jane Addams' Hull-House in Chicago
in the early twentieth century.
