Economic Development X Housing X art spaces

Economic Development X Housing X art spaces I saw this article on my Twitter timeline and i was inspired after reading the article because it appears that HANDS Inc is doing the kind of work that an organization I work with in Washington DC has been doing for sometime now. however it appears that HANDS is having some successes that we are still trying to achieve with my organization here in DC..


Here is there blurb:

HANDS, Inc. is a nonprofit organization, founded in 1986 to ensure that the neighborhoods in and around Orange, NJ remain good places to raise a family. Protecting the stability and vitality of residential neighborhoods is essential to family and community life. Ensuring that is HANDS’ prime mission. The centerpiece of our strategy is to revitalize neighborhoods through the high-impact development of vacant, troubled properties.
