Our Approach

Culture of Opportunity

Conversations build community. We learn through listening and leverage city-wide partnerships to meet needs and address gaps in resources. Our common goal is to make equitable access to opportunity a reality. Through community collaboration and resident partners, we can fulfill this mission and so much more. Together, we create a culture of opportunity.

PURPOSE BUILT COMMUNITIES

To achieve our vision of an inclusive and thriving community, Canopy South utilizes the framework of the Purpose Built Communities Model for holistic community revitalization. We implement best practices established over a decade of experience through an expanding network of Purpose Built Community members, to design a customized plan, tailored to the needs and priorities of the communities we serve. As the Community Quarterback, Canopy South will emphasize three key focus areas: Mixed-Income Housing, Cradle-to-Career Education Pipeline, and Community Vibrancy.
