LISC's Green Development Center provides financial resources, technical information, partnership opportunities, and education to LISC programs and the community development field to support the use of green design, construction, and management principles in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods.

As the nation's largest community development support organization, LISC believes that greener buildings are key components in achieving sustainable communities of choice and opportunity – good places to work, do business and raise children.

Energy-efficient and resource-efficient buildings with healthier indoor air:

• Preserve family income and wealth by lowering utility bills and increasing home values
• Connect neighborhoods to green-related job opportunities in the design and building trades
• Provide schools with better learning environments, and stronger operating margins
• Support healthier lifestyles by exposing residents to fewer toxic substances, lessening respiratory problems
