Our Mission
Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) is dedicated to helping
nonprofit community development corporations (CDCs) transform
distressed neighborhoods into healthy communities of choice and
opportunity — good places to work, do business and raise children.
LISC mobilizes corporate, government and philanthropic support to
provide CDCs with:
-
Loans, Grants, and Equity Investments
-
Local, Statewide, and National Policy Support
-
Technical and Management Assistance
Our History
LISC came to Miami-Dade County in 1985 and later to Palm Beach
County in 1991. We have leveraged more than $600 million in
investments for South Florida, resulting in over 5,751 homes and
apartments, 400 jobs, and 300,000 square feet in commercial space.
South Florida LISC maintains offices in West Palm Beach and downtown
Miami.
