PENSACOLA, Fla. - Dec. 15, 2014 - PRLog -- Founder and former president of the Atlanta Neighborhood Development Partnership (ANDP), Mrs. Hattie B. Dorsey will speak on the Art & Jessica Rocker Radio Show broadcasting live on Choice 106.9FM /WRNE 980 AM on Thursday, December 18, 2014 at 1pm CST.

The former administrative assistant to the National Urban League cultivated her civil rights work by working on the NAACP’s legal defense team throughout the 1970s and 1980s, helping to bring landmark legal suits against those who practiced housing discrimination. Dorsey worked for Stanford Mid - Peninsula Urban Coalition on Affordable Housing in San Francisco, California before becoming director of the Atlanta Neighborhood Development Partnership.

As president of ANDP, Dorsey worked to solidify Metro Atlanta neighborhoods and community development corporations. Under Dorsey’s leadership, issues related to public housing became a regional priority. A larger part of Dorsey’s success as ANDP’s president resided in her ability to develop financial resources from all sectors – private, public and philanthropic. In 1995, ANDP launched a $16 million capital campaign to accelerate housing construction and innovation in preparation for the Olympic Games.
