Rest is a Right the Elderly Deserve
As the year comes to a close, we are asking you to join us in giving the greatest gift of all – rest. Our seniors, many of whom have spent a lifetime contributing to our communities, now face the unimaginable burden of homelessness. Every person deserves the dignity of a safe place to sleep, and for our elderly neighbors, this need is even more urgent.
Garden State Community Development Corporation (GSCDC) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit agency with over 35 years of experience providing affordable housing and social services. Our mission is clear: to cultivate healthier neighborhoods through community development initiatives that unite residents, businesses, government, and faith-based organizations in aiding the most vulnerable in our society.
Forever Home: Housing First Through Holistic Support
Garden State Community Development Corporation (GSCDC) was incorporated as Jersey City Episcopal Community Development Corporation in 1986. GSCDC has grown from a small, volunteer-based organization that successfully rehabilitated a vacant Jersey City schoolhouse into a 28-unit low-income rental building (Resurrection House), into the sophisticated, neighborhood-based community development and social services organization it is today.
Who We Are
Garden State Community Development Corporation (GSCDC), founded in 1986, has grown from a small, volunteer-based organization redeveloping a vacant schoolhouse, into a sophisticated, neighborhood-based community development and social services organization, providing smart, effective, and compassionate programs that target underserved people in under-invested locations.
