Our community development work complements the renovation of 12 homes in West Willow for new Habitat homebuyers. Our first homeowner in West Willow closed on her home in June 2015.

Since 2013 we have also completed several hundred energy efficiency improvements and home repairs for West Willow residents. Many of these improvements help older adults safely and affordably stay in their home as they age.

habitat’s involvement in west willow

Habitat’s Community Development role in West Willow is that of a listener, convener, facilitator, and connector. We use an Asset Based Community Development approach where we listen to West Willow residents express their gifts, dreams, and concerns for their community and work with them to create an action plan for their neighborhood. We commit to supporting resident-led initiatives and leveraging relationships with funders and community partners to make West Willow stronger.
