The Annie E. Casey Foundation recently released its 2024 report, “Changing the Odds: Comprehensive Solutions for Atlanta’s Future.”
The report tracks community, education and economic opportunity data by race. This year’s 36-page report states that while there are some areas of progress, Black Atlanta residents face persistent barriers.
The report also explores how the COVID-19 pandemic and racial unrest in 2020 revealed racial disparities in Atlanta.
On Friday’s edition of “Closer Look,” Kweku Forstall, the director of the Annie E. Casey Foundation’s Atlanta Civic Site, discusses key takeaways from the report.
