Founded in 1966, MPDC has evolved into a permanent institution providing the framework for holistic community revitalization and re-development in Roxbury. MPDC is one of the first community-based, non-profit organizations to independently develop affordable housing for low- to moderate-income residents. Madison Park Development Corporation’s mission is to foster the social, physical, economic, and cultural renaissance of the Roxbury community by promoting the economic self-sufficiency and social well-being of low-income and moderate-income residents and advocating for an equitable share of private and public resources.
