Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Our strategic goals include fostering the development of small businesses by providing access to capital and technical assistance; promoting home ownership and wealth creation through financial counseling and homebuyer education; building and preserving affordable housing; and advancing efforts to end homelessness.

We have increased our lending capital and we are expanding our loan production to help underserved and economically distressed communities further develop by advancing the growth of small businesses and job creation. We are also expanding our access to funding to distribute home improvement grants to low-income homeowners to help them renovate their homes, improve their quality of life and eliminate dangerous code violations, thereby reducing blight and the abandonment of properties. We are also working to develop new affordable housing projects to reduce poverty and increase economic mobility.

Metro Community Development, Inc. has a thirty-year history of serving the local community. We are a certified Community Development Financial Institution with established partnerships with banks and federal, state and local governmental agencies, and we have achieved year-over year growth in our assets and revenues . Our seasoned executive staff has the experience and skillsets required to deliver continuing growth in our services and the positive impacts we make with our clients and the community.

Metro Community Development, Inc. has steadfastly increased it annual lending volumes to small business and entrepreneurs by more than 50% over the previous three years. We have also increased the amount of home improvement awards to low-income homeowners by 63% over the prior year.

Data
  • We review compensation data across the organization (and by staff levels) to identify disparities by race.
  • We ask team members to identify racial disparities in their programs and / or portfolios.
  • We disaggregate data to adjust programming goals to keep pace with changing needs of the communities we support.
  • We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
  • We disaggregate data by demographics, including race, in every policy and program measured.
  • We have long-term strategic plans and measurable goals for creating a culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
Policies and processes
  • We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
  • We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
