 The January/February issue of Shelterforce magazine begins a
 yearlong examination of community development through the prism
 of Newark, NJ. Executive Editor Linda Ocasio provides a
 snapshot of the changing fortunes of New Jersey's largest city
 and what it means for the future role of Newark's CDCs. Another
 article examines the relevance of CDCs in neighborhoods on the
 verge of gentrification. Other articles highlight a "community
 of practice" created by 10 CDCs, discuss the name game some
 developers play with "affordability" and look at community
 development and affordable housing from a European perspective.
