What is the impact of vacant land on a community?

From sustainability to inequality, Ariam Ford, executive director of Grounded Strategies, is interviewed by Karrah Krakovyak on the far reaching implications of vacant land and the amazing work that Grounded Strategies is doing to solve this problem.

"Studies show that, for example, if you grow up next to a concentration of vacant lots, because we know it's a systemic issue and it's related to all issues of social justice, you are more likely to be sicker over the course of your lifetime. You're more likely to make less money than other counterparts in your cohort. You're like more likely to have a score lower on tests or have more mental stress."
