DHCD is dedicated to its mission of serving as a catalyst in neighborhood revitalization by strategically leveraging public funds with private and non-profit partners to preserve, rehabilitate and promote the development of affordable housing, increase home ownership and support community initiative that benefit low-to-moderate income residents.
To fulfill this mission, DHCD works with our sister agencies, local community-based organizations, non-profit developers, financial institutions and others to support projects in the District. This page highlights some of the Department’s contributions to the community.
