Comprehensive Community Development

KNHS takes a comprehensive approach to neighborhood redevelopment. We believe that a very targeted strategy of comprehensive community development is one that works. Our goal of returning neighborhoods to a healthy condition involves multiple strategies:

  • removal of blighted structures too deteriorated to be rehabilitated
  • rehab and resale of homes that are structurally sound
  • conversion of rental units to owner-occupied homes whenever possible
  • building brand new homes on vacant lots in core city neighborhoods often overlooked by builders
  • participation in joint neighborhood revitalization projects with other Kalamazoo nonprofits and the City of Kalamazoo
  • participation in neighborhood pride and image building activities
