What We Do

Comprehensive community redevelopment is a holistic, long-term approach to revitalizing a community by addressing the interconnected needs of its residents, including housing, economic opportunity, education, infrastructure, public safety, and health. This approach recognizes that housing alone isn't enough, and communities need systems and environments that support opportunity and generational stability. It’s about creating the places where people aspire to live, work, and play.

Relationship Building

While financial capital is critical to any development initiative, human capital is the most important part of sustainable change. ACS works with residents to shape the vision and priorities for their communities. We work to identify key stakeholders, gather feedback, and strike a balance between needs, strengths and capacities in order to ensure efforts are effective and sustainable. We facilitate cross-disciplinary collaborations with local governments, nonprofits, housing developers and more to create comprehensive and balanced local solutions.

Resource Development

Once the vision is set, we assist communities in unlocking various funding opportunities at the local, state, and federal levels. We work closely with clients to identify suitable fundraising, grant writing and investment strategies through the creation of compelling proposals and compliance with all application requirements. By leveraging our expertise in grant writing, we enable organizations and communities to secure the financial resources necessary to pursue their development goals and initiatives.

Rollout and Management

Successfully executing community development projects requires meticulous planning, coordination, and oversight. Our team provides expert project implementation and management support to ensure that initiatives are executed efficiently and effectively. From project scheduling and resource allocation to risk management and performance monitoring, we work closely with clients to navigate the complexities of project implementation and deliver impactful results.
