Center for Community Progress

A joint project of the National Vacant Properties Campaign and the Genese Institute, the Center for Community Progress works with government officials and nonprofit organizations to implement policy changes that encourage the reuse of vacant, abandoned, and under utilized properties. Striving to create strong communities by redeveloping these properties, the center accomplishes its mission by developing a national network of vacant property practitioners and experts, research dissemination, advocacy, and local capacity building through technical assistance and training work.
