Community Corporation of Santa Monica ("Community Corp") is a Santa Monica-based nonprofit organization that restores, builds, and manages affordable housing for people of modest means. For more than three decades, Community Corp has made Santa Monica a more inclusive, caring & environmentally sustainable city. Community Corp was incorporated in 1982 by community leaders who sought to preserve Santa Monica's social and economic diversity by providing affordable housing. The corporation is directed by a 15-member board that represents the diversity of Santa Monica, comprised of housing and finance experts, city residents, and professionals with relevant skills in their fields. 35 years later, Community Corp remains true to our mission of improving lives and neighborhoods, fostering a more inclusive caring and environmentally sustainable city. We have built and restored more than 90 properties throughout Santa Monica, creating nearly 1,700 affordable homes and transforming the lives of more than 4,000 people every year. While providing affordable housing, we enrich lives by integrating programs on site at our properties, linking our residents to existing programs and resources in the community. Community Corp resident services department programs are organized around four program areas: Wellness and sustainability, Arts and Community building, Youth development and Older adults and resiliency.
