Technical assistance will be available to communities nationwide to work with the BRADS team:

• Three Pilot Communities will be selected to conduct an in-depth assessment of current practitioner knowledge, identify gentrification concerns in their community, and review existing anti-displacement policies (if available).
• Five EPA Brownfields grant recipients/sub-recipients will be selected to work with our team to identify risks of gentrification, provide guidance on anti-displacement policies and strategies using the roadmaps and resources developed by BRADS, and provide guidance to identify funding on assessment, cleanup, and redevelopment of Brownfields.
• Two future EPA Brownfields grant applicants will receive assistance and receive guidance on anti-displacement policies through guides and resources developed by the BRADS team.

Communities will be selected based on need and risk for gentrification [i.e., communities that might be higher risk for involuntary displacement will be prioritized) and geographic diversity.
