A panel hosted by City Club of the Mahoning Valley discussed what it takes for all Youngstown residents to be affected by revitalization efforts.

By many metrics, the revitalization efforts in Youngstown have been successful. Downtown is regaining its vibrancy, large development projects have gotten underway in recent years and crime is dropping.

Putting an end to racism, creating healthy neighborhoods and carving early career paths were among the suggestions at a discussion on revitalizing Youngstown Tuesday evening.

Power, race and revitalization were discussed Tuesday night during the City Club of the Mahoning Valley’s free community panel at the Youngstown Playhouse.
