Revitalizing Newark: Dupre Kelly's Vision for Change

I want systemic change to happen, because when you force the change that way, it happens and it stays around and sticks around for a long, long time.
What does it take to breathe new life into a city like Newark? In this engaging episode of 'Urban Tools for Change', Dr. Lisa LaCon sits down with City Council Candidate Dupre Kelly to explore just that. Kelly, a Newark native and former member of the hip-hop group Lords of the Underground, shares his ambitious plans for the city. From affordable housing to community empowerment, Kelly outlines his vision for a brighter future.
He stresses the need for systemic change and encourages residents to get involved in the political process. Dr. LaCon adds her expertise on mental health, discussing how youth development and psychiatric rehabilitation can contribute to a healthier, more resilient community. Whether you're a Newark local or simply interested in urban revitalization, this episode is packed with valuable insights and practical advice for making positive change.
