Communities of Opportunity is a hybrid organization. The Director is paid by the city of San Francisco, but the Associate Director is paid by a nonprofit formed to fund the organization. Lately Communities of Opportunity has been in the press about the amount of money they have run through and the results that they’ve accumulated for the funds spent. I got together with Kimberly Wicoff, the Associate Director of Communities for Opportunity and discussed some of the issues and programs that they’re engaged in. We learned of the programs highlights and some of their low lights. We also learn how they are restructuring themselves for the future.
