    This document summarizes a planning project involving small businesses at the Takoma/Langley Crossroads area. It includes an introduction describing the study area's demographics and statistics showing high rates of foreign-born, Latino, and non-English speaking residents compared to surrounding areas. The methodology section describes engagement methods like interviews, meetings, and observation. Three underlying narratives are presented: the area as a new immigrant community, a border town, and site of transit-oriented development. Lessons learned include continuing to support local partners, outreach, and active listening, while also improving leadership development, accountability, and data integrity.
