In response to the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the Department of City and Regional Planning (CRP) created the New Orleans Planning Initiative (NOPI), a collaboration between CRP and the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN). NOPI provides academic research and resources to assist ACORN's community-based planning and redevelopment efforts in the 9th Ward, one of the poorest and hardest-hit areas of New Orleans. Through engaged scholarship, NOPI seeks to enhance the participation of 9th Ward community members in the redevelopment process.
