PittsburghTODAY.org
Comparing our region to other areas of the country lets us see how we measure up, and what our strengths and weaknesses are. It also gives us a way to measure progress as we move forward as a region.
This project´s goal is to spark a more informed civic dialog. By providing a timely and accurate statistical picture of regional life, we hope to stimulate a discussion of where we are and where we hope to go. To that end every aspect of the project is designed to involve as many knowledgeable and involved citizens as possible from every corner of the region. Under the direction of a volunteer organizing committee they are responsible for the development of data and the encouragement of informed discussion.
Generations Together (GT)
GT is an international center for intergenerational studies at the University of Pittsburgh. It furthers program development, education and training, research, and dissemination, and technical support that helps professionals acquire the knowledge, understanding, and skills to integrate intergenerational components into their work.
