MISSION STATEMENT

    The Main South CDC is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization that was incorporated in 1986.  It evolved as a result of neighborhood resident's concerns about the evident decline in the neighborhood and the increasing shortage of affordable housing.

    The Mission of the Main South CDC is to improve the quality of life for ourselves, our families, and our neighbors by working together on projects and issues that will maintain or create safe affordable housing, support economic opportunities for businesses and residents of Main South, enhance the physical image of the area, and instill a sense of neighborhood pride and commitment.

   GOALS:

• Maintain and develop safe, decent and affordable housing with the intention of expanding rental and ownership opportunities for the current and future residents of the target area.
• Maintain and enhance the physical image of the neighborhood.
• Instill neighborhood pride and develop a social cohesiveness.
• Strive to seek representation from all segments of the Main South Community and increase awareness of the Main South CDC among residents, business people and organizations within and outside the target area.
• Operate the Corporation as a financially responsible and democratic organization.
