Abstract:
North Carolina has embarked on a mission to achieve balanced development in all rural and urban areas across the state and improve the living standards. The strategy employs a unified federal-state-regional approach through a Statewide Development Plan. The primary goal is the creation of a network of smaller urban clusters which, along with the larger cities, can maintain a balance to support a higher standard of living throughout the state.

Abstract:
While local governments are making efforts to create more inclusive social policies, little is known about what these policies are and how they are developed. To better understand municipal immigrant integration practices, my Master’s Thesis, Building Integrated Communities: Innovative Bureaucratic Incorporation Strategies for North Carolina, completed in May 2012 examined integration using two methods: 1) analyzing strategies local jurisdictions employ across the country to integrate immigrants and 2) presenting a case study to better understand the contextual, structural, and institutional factors of a two-year strategic planning process to develop an immigrant integration plan in three local jurisdictions in North Carolina, a new immigrant destination. From this analysis, I gleaned practical recommendations for other local governments interested in developing similar immigrant integration initiatives that will be discussed in this article.
