Originally, Housing Partnership focused on housing and neighborhood revitalization, and Parent-Child Center focused on children’s mental health. Over time, as these organizations worked together more closely, we learned that housing is, by and large, a reflection of the social and economic well-being of the people who live in it. In turn, we have become convinced that neighborhoods are a reflection of the social and economic well-being of the neighbors in the neighborhood. We see children and families as the building blocks of community, and their psychosocial and financial well-being are at the heart of its vitality. It is no accident that there has been a growing recognition nationally of the convergence of the traditional community development and social service arenas.
As a result of these conclusions, Community Partnership Group is committed to advancing the well-being of families and communities by providing the most effective, coordinated services possible that address their psychosocial and financial well-being. All of our services seek to partner with the child in the context of the family and with the family in the context of the community. In partnering with residents and other key stakeholders, it is this network of services that forms the core of our systemic approach to family and community development.
