Sustainable
(Green Initiatives)

We are committed to ensuring the sustainability of our communities with as little negative environmental impact as possible. Sustainably built and energy efficient communities also provide residents with affordable utilities. Providence aspires to achieve green certification for all future development.

Mixed-Income

Mixed income housing creates opportunity through socio-economic integration and place-based strategies, connecting whole communities to transit and commerce. Providence seeks opportunities for inclusive development within areas of opportunity that are close to public transit, jobs and education, and accessible for healthy foods and healthcare.

Infill & Blight Remediation

Key strategies include the rehabilitation of existing, overlooked, and often blighted structures that not only reduce public hazards but retain important historic and cultural assets. Infill development is designed to be complementary to existing neighborhood characteristics while offering new opportunities.

Individuals & Families

Providence creates equitable housing opportunities for all residents. By incorporating a mission-driven approach to our work, we ensure that all individuals and families we serve have a place to call home. For those individuals and families that need extra support, our case management service providers assist in connecting our residents to the services and resources they need to continue to access opportunities and enhance their quality of life.

We operate from a synergistic perspective, realizing that strong neighborhoods are developed through collaborative efforts --from resident engagement to urban planning and city government.
