Common Ground Community Development Corporation (CGCDC) was founded in 2016 by Common Ground Church and other community members in order to better resource and serve our neighbors and to meet the expressed needs of our city’s most vulnerable youth.

Our mission is to inspire a lifestyle of wellness in the community through community. Programs are developed from the idea that wellness encompasses eight mutually interdependent dimensions: physical, intellectual, emotional, social, spiritual, vocational, financial, and environmental. We intend to promote systematic change by providing opportunities for growth in all these areas for individuals and families in our community. We empower those seeking wellness to be advocates of wellness to their sphere of influence and serve alongside other members of our community to bring a sense of belonging and to initiate big change one person at a time.
