A dramatic increase in young residents is reshaping Pittsburgh and helping to shed its aging image. As Pittsburgh prepares to host the One Young World Conference, please join Doug Heuck, the PittsburghTODAY staff and a panel of community leaders for a conversation about how we can continue to build a region that attracts and retains young adults.
The following report includes the results of a major survey of our region (comprising 32 counties) and a number of focus group sessions - each providing data to help illuminate 'the truth' about young adults in Pittsburgh. To view the report please click the following link: Young Adults Report 2012.
If you would like to attend this event and have not yet registered please contact Emily Craig by October 9th at
(412) 624-5736 or edc20@pitt.edu.
