The eight recipients of the 2004 Dorothy Richardson Awards for Resident Leadership were chosen from Neighborhood Reinvestment districts. They are exemplary successors to the legacy of Dorothy Richardson, who died in 1992.

The winners' stories are shining examples of the difference just one person can make, first, as leaders themselves and, then, by developing the potential of additional new leaders through resident involvement. They demonstrate why committed resident leaders are critical to building and maintaining strong, healthy neighborhoods.
