We at CASA intentionally created the Community Economic Development Department to empower our low-income and working-class community, by providing them with the skills, knowledge, resources, and organizing tools they need to stabilize and improve their socio-economic well-being.

In partnership with community colleges, universities, unions, local, State, and Federal governments, private institutions, public and private foundations, and people like you, we have successfully created an eco-system that directly supports our community members in achieving the socio-economic justice they pursue. Whether community members want to find decent and dignified jobs, improve their skill sets, establish or improve their small businesses, or organize their co-ops, CASA supports them in achieving their dreams
