N2  - Leadership-development and capacity-building initiatives, like the ones highlighted in this volume, are the keys to empowering local communities so they can make the most of their assets and meet the challenges that they face. OUP continually challenges its grantees to work hard at strengthening the ability of both individuals and community-based organizations to make a profound difference in their neighborhoods, towns, and cities. By taking this empowering mission seriously, OUP grantees ensure that community revitalization efforts will be homegrown and, more importantly, that they will be sustained over the long term
