23 - Mayor Shirley Franklin: The Purpose-Built Community

I'm excited to be joined by Shirley Franklin, the former mayor of Atlanta and the executive chairman of the board of directors of Purpose Built Communities. Shirley Franklin, executive chairman of Purpose Built Communities, is working to break the cycle of intergenerational poverty, and thereby create a culture of health and wellbeing. She helps local leaders transform struggling neighborhoods and brings together the vital components necessary for holistic community revitalization. The 58th mayor of Atlanta, Shirley was the first woman to hold the post and the first African American woman elected mayor of a major southern city. Shirley helped Atlanta become one of the most progressive cities in the country.
