inCOMMON Community Development

We believe no one should have to face a lifetime of poverty simply because of the zip code they were born into. Children who grow up in poor neighborhoods are far more likely to become adults living in poverty. These vulnerable neighborhoods lack the basic building blocks young people need to succeed later in life such as safe streets and play spaces, social support networks, high performing schools, affordable housing, and employment opportunities. inCOMMON partners with neighbors to strengthen vulnerable neighborhoods so that every child has the chance to grow up in a safe, thriving, and opportunity-rich environment. We do so by focusing on strengths and building upon what is already in the neighborhood and contributes to quality of life – people, culture, history, organizations, land, and physical structures. By building on neighbors’ strengths and empowering neighbors to work together to lead neighborhood change, inCOMMON is building strong and safe neighborhoods for future generations who might otherwise grow up under the detrimental conditions of poverty.
