Today, CEDAC released our FY23 Annual Report, highlighting our most exciting and impactful projects of the past year that were completed alongside our non-profit community development partners in our ongoing efforts to create greater access to high quality affordable housing and child care across Massachusetts.
In 2023, the Commonwealth achieved historic milestones in the expansion of our policy and leadership infrastructure devoted exclusively to housing. CEDAC was proud to welcome Secretary Ed Augustus and the new Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities, created by Governor Maura Healey’s administration.
2023 was also a year in which CEDAC reflected on our own history as we observed the passing of legendary community leader Mel King. The impact of Mel King’s work can be seen and felt in housing, community organizing and planning, and youth programs across the entire state of Massachusetts. We at CEDAC will always remain true to his vision for strengthening communities by providing financial and technical assistance to community-based organizations for affordable housing and child care development.
As we release this report, we would especially like to thank our public and private partners for your continued support and advocacy. Without you, this important work would not be possible. We hope that you will enjoy learning about our activities over the past year and look forward to working with you all for years to come as we pursue our shared goal to build strong communities across the Commonwealth.
