Abstract

The Philadelphia Fed hosted a forum last August that focused on some of the different approaches used by community development organizations. The event, titled Models of Surviving and Thriving CDCs: A Forum on Organizational Approaches and Strategies, was jointly sponsored by the Philadelphia Fed, the Delaware Housing Coalition, the Housing and Community Development Network of New Jersey, and the Philadelphia Association of Community Development Corporations. The forum reflected the Fed?s ongoing interest in community development corporations (CDCs). The 40 attendees were experienced community development leaders. One central theme that all of the presenters focused on ? despite the size, years in existence, or structure of their organization ? was how critical partnerships and collaboration are to their effectiveness
