The Mapping COVID-19 Recovery Project, a collaborative effort of 25 Chicago foundations, nonprofit organizations, and public and private groups, links historic disinvestments in some Chicago neighborhoods with COVID-19\u2019s impact on those communities, reports WBEZ. <\/p>\n

The project, according to WBEZ, consists of “a series of maps that show past and present housing discrimination, school closures, heavy public investments in incarceration, lack of healthcare access and other factors that the groups say led to the pandemic\u2019s disproportionate impact on the city\u2019s Black and Latino communities.”<\/p>\n
