Prosperity Indiana builds a better future for our communities by providing advocacy, leveraging resources, and engaging an empowered network of members to create inclusive opportunities that build assets and improve lives. Prosperity Indiana was founded in 1986 as the Indiana Association for Community Economic Development to serve community development organizations working on behalf of disadvantaged and low-income populations in Indiana. Our member organizations strengthen Hoosier communities in rural, small city, and urban areas in Indiana through housing rehabilitation and construction; employment-generating activities; real estate development; industrial and small business development; and human services.
