Neighborhood Development

Agape Community Center's Neighborhood Development department currently focuses on efforts in Thurston Woods, Fairfield, and Old North Milwaukee. Click the neighborhood profiles link above to receive more information about Agape's work in a particular area.  Neighborhood Development staff members focus on making strategic investments that further stimulate revitalization in these neighborhoods.  Havenwoods Economic Development Corporation, a partner of Agape Community Center, also serves portions of Graceland, Havenwoods, Town & Country Manor, and Wyrick Park.
