CHINATOWN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CENTER
Chinatown CDC is a place-based community development organization in San Francisco serving primarily the Chinatown neighborhood and other areas including North Beach and the Tenderloin. CCDC is a community development organization with many roles-as neighborhood advocates, organizers and planners, and as developers and managers of affordable housing. CCDC believes in a comprehensive vision of community, a quality environment, a healthy neighborhood economy, and active voluntary associations. It is committed to the empowerment of low-income residents, diversity and coalition building, and social and economic justice. CCDC will be the property manager and social services provider.
MISSION ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGENCY
MEDA’s Community Real Estate Program was launched at the end of 2013 through the Mission Promise Neighborhood initiative as a hard-hitting response to the displacement challenges happening to low-income Latino families in the Mission District of San Francisco. MEDA’s Community Real Estate Program develops real estate from site identification to asset management, with the Mission District in San Francisco as our primary geography. Preserving and producing real estate as our means to stabilizing and strengthening our community. A joint MEDA-CCDC partnership will own the property long-term.
