New Home, New Hope: Compass on Washington

Creating affordable housing opportunities is undoubtedly important in the effort to assist low-income households in achieving financial and personal success. While the structure itself provides place and protection, some of the most impactful features are born from the dedication and expertise of the various support systems that maintain the community as it grows to its fullest potential. These support systems become even more essential to success when the residents in question are those who have faced or are at risk of homelessness. Nonprofit organizations, mental health professionals and career coaches are just some of the many diverse figures who act as beacons of hope and support for such individuals and families who call affordable developments home.

This full service, in-house support approach for populations facing housing insecurity is one familiar to those involved in the development of Compass on Washington near downtown Indianapolis, which broke ground this November. Englewood Community Development Corporation is responsible for the creation and management of several affordable housing developments in the Near Eastside area of Indianapolis, modelled to foster meaningful community bonds. Their work is centered on the ambition to embody the "love of neighbor," a mission which guides their work in housing and beyond.
