What We Produce
Why cdcb leads this work
For more than 45 years, cdcb has worked directly with families across South Texas to expand access to affordable housing, financial stability, and economic opportunity. This deep, one-on-one engagement gives us a unique understanding of the systemic barriers facing border communities—and the policy changes needed to address them.
people. policy. power. is funded by a generous grant from the Wells Fargo Foundation.
