Our Mission:
Our mission is to stabilize and revitalize the East Side neighborhoods that we serve in order to improve the quality of life for all those reside or work here. We aim to reduce neighborhood blight, preserve current housing stock,increase availability of quality home ownership opportunities and affordable well-managed rental units, provide economic and educational programs, promote the activites of new and existing businesses and create a safer, healthier community for all. We seek to foster open channels of communication among thoses within the community and the government. We involve all that have an interest and encourage their leadership and growth to achieve these objectives.
Community Support
Fostering community pride and participation is also an important part of the work we do. Whether you're a resident, business owner, or someone who grew up here and wants to see the neighborhood retain its character and vitality, we want you to be connected to our organization and its mission. One way to stay informed and to support our initiatives is to become a WESCDC member, the benefits of which include our quarterly newsletter, as well as an invitation to our Annual Meeting and free buffet dinner held each September.
