Invest STL

Invest STL’s Rooted initiative gives Black and low-income residents in the West End and Visitation Park neighborhoods $20,000 to invest in their homes and community.

WeCollab was formed from community engagement and is led by residents from West End and Visitation Park with intention to avoid gentrification, lower crime, and raise the value of their neighborhoods.

St. Louis has a long way to go to make good on its promise to refocus its development strategy around equity and inclusion, but many are hopeful this is a turning point.
