Funded by the New York City Center for Economic Opportunity, the project was designed to gain and disseminate a clear, balanced, in-depth understanding of CEO’s goals, policies, and operations—and how and why those have changed over time. The project produced a final report that described the evolution of an on-going, anti-poverty center from the idea of creating a Commission for Economic Opportunity, to the establishment of the Center, and through the many decisions and developments that led to the Center’s current anti-poverty mission and its mode of operation. MEF Associates was a subcontractor to Rockefeller Institute of Government at SUNY Albany.
