Salary Range: $43-45k annually About The Community Builders: The Community Builders, Inc. (TCB) is a nationally recognized nonprofit developer, owner, and manager of affordable and mixed-income residential and commercial properties. We envision a world with vibrant, safe and inclusive neighborhoods in which all people live in healthy homes with equitable access to resources and opportunities to pursue their dreams. Our mission is to build and sustain strong communities where all people can thrive. We realize our mission by developing, financing, and operating affordable, mixed income residential communities, neighborhood amenities and resident opportunity programming. Founded in 1964, TCB currently owns/manages 13,000+ units of rental housing across the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Midwest. About Community Life at TCB Community Life (CL) is TCB's place-based model that uses stable housing as a platform for connecting families, seniors, and households with disabilities to community resources and opportunities. We engage residents in creating programs and building strategic partnerships with local stakeholders to create pathways to opportunities in early education, economic mobility, youth development, voting registration, health, and resident leadership. Community Life's goal is to create equitable access to community supports, resources, and opportunities for all residents so that everyone can thrive. The successful candidate will have a chance to join in a once-in-a-generation neighborhood transformation plan made possible through the Choice Neighborhood Implementation Grant. About Choice Neighborhoods Implementation Grant (CNI) The Choice Neighborhoods Implementation grant leverages significant public and private dollars to support locally driven strategies that address struggling neighborhoods with distressed public or HUD-assisted housing through a comprehensive approach to neighborhood transformation. Local leaders, residents, and stakeholders, such as public housing authorities, cities, schools, business owners, nonprofits, and private developers, come together to create and implement a plan that unleashes the full potential of communities by revitalizing severely distressed public and/or assisted housing and catalyzing critical improvements in the neighborhood, including businesses, services, and schools. The Choice grant aims to ensure residents can experience personal and professional transformation, while the physical landscape of the community also transforms. We will achieve these goals by ensuring families are stable in their housing and connected to programs and resources in the areas of education, workforce development, financial education and asset building, and health. Additionally, community engagement and community-building activities are essential to building resident trust and creating a culture of accountability and responsiveness. Woodhill Homes: The Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority and the City of Cleveland were awarded a $35 million FY 2020 Choice Neighborhoods Implementation Grant for the Buckeye-Woodhill neighborhood. In 2018, the Housing Authority, City, and community partners secured a Choice Neighborhoods Planning award. Now through the Choice Neighborhoods Implementation Grant, the partners are moving from planning to action. The grantee (CMHA) and their partners will: create 800 new, mixed-income rental units; develop a new health clinic, early childhood education center, and retail space on a commercial corridor; rehab owner-occupied housing and infill vacant lots; and connect residents to employment, health, early learning and education opportunities. We have reached a critical milestone in the 6-year project, where the majority of families have relocated off-site to their temporary housing while new housing is built. This phase requires SCs to be mobile, doing outreach and home visits in the community where people have relocated to. SCs
