A Note from the Director...

 

A safe, warm bed for our children.  Shelter from the summer heat and a roof over our heads to keep out the winter rain and cold.  Maybe even a little sunny spot for a garden...

 

These are things we all want, nevertheless, for many hard working families in our communities, these do not come easy. 

 

That's why I appreciate YCDC so much.

 

At YCDC we work to help families build their own homes using sweat-equity to offset costs and generate equity and wealth.  We help create strong communities and stimulate local economies.

 

In our work, we coordinate with a wide variety of private and governmental agencies to find low-interest loans, grants, and subsidies to make these high-quality homes even more affordable.

 

Please call today to learn more about how you can work toward owning a new home!
