Emily Broad Leib, Emma I. Scott & John J. Green, Delta Directions Consortium (DDC): Summary of Collaborative Pathways, Delta Directions (Jan. 27, 2021).


Abstract: The Delta Directions Consortium is an interdisciplinary network of individuals, academic institutions, non-profit organizations, and foundations that work together to create positive social change in the multi-state Mississippi Delta Region. Goals include improving public health and promoting socioeconomic development. The Consortium is not an independent non-profit organization but, rather, an alliance of partners committed to collaborative and innovative problem-solving. This document provides a summary of pathways for partners in the Delta Directions Consortium, with emphasis on substantive topics and projects. It should be read as a living document to frame ideas and approaches that will be adapted in response to the needs and interests of core partners and diverse stakeholders.
