Formal title:: Henry Shelton and George Wiley Center records
Extent:: 15 linear feet
Date range:: 1968-2009
Abstract:: The Henry Shelton and George Wiley Center records comprise correspondence, agendas, meeting minutes, publications, newspaper clippings, and press releases that cover all aspects of Henry Shelton's community organizing work both independently and through the George Wiley Center. The materials date from 1968-2009. The content reflects the mission of Shelton and the George Wiley Center to empower people to create social and economic justice through changes in public policy. The focus of the work has been the following issues affecting low-income populations: utility access and affordability, fair housing, labor unions, childhood poverty, and preventing hunger. They have worked on these goals through several major programs including the Rhode Island Campaign to Eliminate Childhood Poverty, Rhode Island Parents for Progress, and the Fund for Community Progress. These materials also reflect the work of Shelton to lobby and partner with the Rhode Island Governor’s office, Representatives and Senators at the state and federal levels, and community groups of all types.
