Dear Mr. Sweat:

Last month I joined the national Urban Coalition staff
and, I am now your principal contact with the national
Coalition. I have assumed primary responsibility, along
with my colleagues, for advising and rendering technical
assistance to Local Coalitions in the Southeastern States.
My colleagues and I have or will be visiting you in the
very near future to become acquainted with your efforts
and to discuss ways in which the national Coalition may
be of assistance to you.

Enclosed for your information is a list of the cities in
our region reporting the organization of a local Coalition
along with the names of the persons to be contacted in that
Coalition. :

I look forward with pleasure to being of service to you.

Dear Dan,

Enclosed is an outline of some of the
points I would like to discuss with you and
any other community leader involved with the
local coalition that you would believe it
useful for me to talk to during my June 17
visit. I know that the Atlanta effort has
not progressed to the point where many of the
questions are relevant, but we can focus on
those that are.

Looking forward to seeing you
around 10:00 a.m.
