We aim to empower residents through an active, informed and self-sufficient citizenry. 

NKCDC works collaboratively with the community to enhance the physical environment, increase the economic vitality, and improve the quality of life for everyone in our service area. We build community through neighborhood-driven programs and activites. We're bringing residents together to realize our vision of vital and vibrant neighborhoods:

- Affordable homes for working families
- Rehabilitation of blighted properties
- Clean, open spaces for parks and play
- Strong business with good jobs 
- Informed and involved community leaders and residents

To help make our vision a reality, please get involved! Send us your information and what you're interested in, and a staff member will be happy to contact you! Whether it's helping us plant trees on an early Saturday morning, or simply subscribing to our e-newsletters, being a part of NKCDC is a great way to get involved in your neighborhood!
