Contact Brian Hurd ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) today to RSVP for the next RHCDA Group Training concerning data and how it relates to economic development.

Housing is one important component to improving the quality of neighborhoods. However, quality business and commercial developments that serve and complement these neighborhoods are also important.

RHCDA will provide important information and available resources to better understand demographic and market information for Community Development Corporations to be able to use.  This informational will highlight the assets and market opportunities of consistently misrepresented, underserved urban neighborhoods.  With better data come better investment opportunities.

The content will highlight how community development professionals can gather data to support these overlooked urban markets by delivering the information about a community's economic health that is needed to make critically important investments possible and partnering with investors, municipalities, and community leaders to leverage this valuable information in the decision-making process.

"Fighting the drug crime here was met with moderate success until RHCDA partnered with us to buy out 93 units of problem properties; now the drug activity has been eradicated...it was a good place to live, now Forest Park Southeast is a great place to live."
