POST KATRINA CONFLICT AND CHANGE: LSU/VA HOSPITALS, PROGRESS OR CIVIC DISASTER

The decision on whether and how to rebuild Charity and the Veterans Affairs Hospitals in New Orleans post-Katrina raised many complex issues and challenges. Local experts and citizen advocates will examine failures in the public process, alternatives that were available, fiscal responsibility, the impacts to the environment, community, historic neighborhoods, social justice, and healthcare  - and the lessons learned going forward.

Mary Howell, Civil Rights Attorney; Sandra Stokes, Director at Large, Foundation for Historical Louisiana; Bill Borah, Land Use Attorney, President, Smart Growth for Louisiana; Jacques Morial, Public Policy Specialist

Hope to see you there!
