History

Founded in 1966, MPDC has evolved into a permanent institution providing the framework for holistic community revitalization and re-development in Roxbury. MPDC is one of the first community-based, non-profit organizations to independently develop affordable housing for low- to moderate-income residents. Since 1966, MPDC has been hailed as a model for resident-led community development.

Despite enormous success, the job of revitalizing Roxbury is not finished. A truly vibrant community is more than its physical structures. Community viability is also about the social, cultural, and economic well-being of its residents. With resident input and support, MPDC has undertaken numerous programs to address the social and economic needs of the community and has endeavored to link all of its efforts into a powerful, holistic approach to revitalizing our target areas.

Madison Park strongly believes in community partnership because we want to build and be members of a strong and healthy community. We embrace partnerships that strengthen each other's organizations and institutions. We know through collaboration we can build power and harness our collective capacity to advocate for change.
