Our Approach

Our Vision is to be the preferred provider of choice for innovative real estate development, intentionally designed to bring health and healing to marginalized communities.

Our Mission is to create equitable access to a healthy life for all through innovative housing solutions.

Our Values are grounded in respect, integrity, authenticity, creativity and resilience.  

Over 110 million Americans live in at risk or distressed communities, leaving millions of families lacking access to:

- Safe & Affordable Housing

- Healthy & Affordable Food

- Affordable Higher Education

- Reliable & Affordable Child Care

- Accessible & Affordable Transportation

- Quality & Affordable Health Care

- Necessary & Affordable Technology

This lack of access has led to significant life expectancy gaps. Gaps of up to 15 years exist between prosperous and distressed communities.

We BOLDLY seek to close the life expectancy gaps experienced across distressed communities through WISE real estate development.

We've  deployed our time and talents to study the key drivers of the life expectancy gaps and the key interventions that lead to giving years of life back. 

We've assigned numeric value, of years of life added, per intervention within the WISE Communities development model.

We build communities to be WISE!
