New RAIN Publications: Employment Impact Statement $.50 postpaid The Center for Growth Alternatives (1785 Massachusetts Ave., N.W., Washington, DC 20036) published a short employment impact statement last spring for community groups to use for evaluating the claims of developers and growth proponents. We've expanded the format to include evaluation of alternatives and more community impacts, added a resource section and printed up a bunch.
