Welcome to Washington, DC LISC!

We are one site of the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC), the nation’s largest community development support organization. Our mission is to help neighborhood residents create healthy and sustainable places of choice and opportunity – good places to live, work, raise children and conduct business. We mobilize corporate, government, individual donor and philanthropic support and invest these resources into the projects, programs and initiatives that build on the assets and address the challenges of the neighborhoods in Washington, DC.

1982-2012: Celebrating 30 Years of Investing in the People and Neighborhoods of Washington, DC

For the next  year, DC LISC will celebrate 30 years of working to improve the quality of life for lower income people in our neighborhoods.   Throughout the year we will have a series of Celebrations, looking back at what we've accomplished with our nonprofit partners.  We will also continue to Discover new opportunities, partners and resources that can help achieve our mission in the future.
