    • Society & Culture

In 2014, Charlotte faced a major wake-up call when it learned that it had the worst economic mobility among the fifty major cities in the country. The community responded by launching a community-wide, multi-year effort to help ensure that "within a generation, every child in Charlotte-Mecklenburg will have an equal chance to achieve social and economic success." In this episode, we interview Sherri Chisolm, Director of Leading on Opportunity for Charlotte, NC, and learn what it means for a community to commit to making the American Dream a reality.
