Our Vision
Vision Statement
At the We Build Together Housing Initiative, we envision a revitalized Ville neighborhood where every individual and family has access to safe, dignified, and affordable housing. Rooted in faith and guided by Catholic social teaching, our collaborative effort seeks to transform vacant lots and abandoned buildings into vibrant homes that reflect the resilience and worth of the community. We are committed to fostering a sense of belonging, honoring the legacy of those who have called this neighborhood home, and ensuring that the revitalization process uplifts rather than displaces. Through strategic partnerships, community engagement, and a shared vision, we aim to build more than homes. We aim to build hope, stability, and a renewed sense of community.
Our Values
Our values are grounded in Catholic Social Teaching. We believe in empowering communities, honoring the dignity of every person, fostering collaboration and partnership, and living out our faith through responsible stewardship.
Community Empowerment
We believe in the strength of community and the power of collective action. Our initiative prioritizes local involvement, ensuring that the voices of residents guide the revitalization efforts and that everyone has an opportunity to contribute to the transformation of their neighborhood.
Dignity and Respect
Every person deserves to live in a safe and welcoming environment. We are committed to providing affordable housing that upholds the dignity of all individuals, fostering a community where respect, inclusivity, and justice are foundational.
Collaboration and Partnership
We understand that lasting change requires strong partnerships. Through collaboration with local organizations, churches, and civic leaders, we are working together to address the root causes of housing insecurity and create a sustainable future for all residents.
Faith and Stewardship
Guided by our Catholic values, we see housing as a fundamental right and an expression of God’s love for all people. We are stewards of the land, committed to environmental sustainability and responsible development that benefits future generations.
We Build together
From Mill Creek to The Ville, the Catholic Church stands united in this mission.
