Opportunity Communities, LLC

Through Opportunity Communities, community development non-profits leverage their combined resources to create administrative support and programmatic capacity in areas that benefit from scale and expertise. Control and governance remains local, guiding strategic direction, local programs, budget and assets. Without sacrificing local control, OppCo achieves a more sustainable, efficient and robust structure for community development activities to support stronger families, greater economic equality, and thriving communities that benefit all people. OppCo was launched in April 2018 by two experienced Greater Boston non-profits--Nuestra Comunidad and The Neighborhood Developers. In 2022, the North Shore CDC joined as our third member. Across the three organizations is a housing portfolio of 1,863 apartments, providing a stable home to over 3,780 low- and moderate-income individuals. Over time, as OppCo expands its membership, it expects to manage tenant services and asset management of 10,000 affordable homes and to support its members to diversify and accelerate their affordable housing production.
