Thanks for visiting the Center of Hope CDC's website! We are pleased to be able to provide a look at our clients, programs, services and housing opportunities that combine to fulfill our mission of "Rebuilding Lives, Creating Alternatives, and Redeveloping Communities!" The Center of House DC was “born” in 2009 under the direction of Pastor Cederick D. McMillan, Senior Pastor of New Birth Community Church.  We recognize the need to meet and serve people where they are and then responsibly act to bring about the positive changes needed so that communities are empowered for growth.

We focus our attention and resources in the following seven areas, believing they have the greatest impact towards the overall community enhancement:

1. Community Service
2. Financial Stewardship
3. Health and Wellness
4. Housing and Homeownership
5. Small Business Development
6. Workforce Development
7. Youth and Family


We hope that you are encouraged, maybe even inspired by our work and will join with us to transform dreams into realities.  George Washington Carver said, "Start with what you have. There is more around you than you think. As for the land, make something of it." With your help it can be done…and most importantly, it’s the right thing to do.
