NCST’s work increases access to homeownership, promotes resilient neighborhoods, and advances racial equity by advocating for policy change.
Healthy Neighborhoods, Inc. (HNI) is a partnership of banks, foundations, government and community organizations that helps strong but undervalued neighborhoods increase home values, market their communities, create high standards for property improvement, forge strong connections among neighbors and brings innovative capital to Baltimore neighborhoods.
For over 18 years, HNI has developed market-driven strategies to benefit Baltimore’s middle neighborhoods – areas with significant assets but stagnant or undervalued real estate. By investing in capital improvements, providing loans with concessionary rates, and strengthening resident capacity, HNI is stabilizing and improving these neighborhoods. Employing a practice of community development that builds upon existing neighborhood assets, marketing and self-management, HNI’s investments result in increased values, improved property conditions and neighborhood stability and leadership.
