The Ponchatrain Park CDC's mission is to restore and maintain the Ponchatrain Park Community - the first subdivision built in New Orleans during the time of segregation, specifically for the expanding middle class African American community. PRCDC accomplishes this through its Red Home Program, which purchases all vacant properties in the neighborhood and strives to sell them to first-time homebuyers, and by ensuring that the Joseph Bartholomew Golf Course - a fixture of the community - remains municipally owned.
